RE: Kindness & OneNess: Attitude of Gratitude #2

Beautiful!

Some cynically argue that any kind of caring or altruism is self-interest because it comes back at us in kind.

Self care is also important for our mental and emotional health among others. So I have a hard time understanding those with such a cynical perspective.

You can’t just chant and then go and gossip or badmouth or be mean to someone – you have to take out that understanding into daily action so you don’t limit the freedoms of others.

Yes! How much more peaceful this world would be if we could just put this into action. I must admit venting is a habit I picked up long ago and am trying heard to break. While people say it relieves stress, it doesn't actually solve any problems. We would be better served talking to those we need to vent about instead of behind their backs.

Thanks again for joining in! -Aimee

Ah, sometimes we need to vent and I'm guilty of it too. I try not to but sometimes it's healthier to air it to just one trusted person and then move on - it can be quite useful to stop simmering resentments that's for sure or to work through confusion!!

Yes, if we all put this into action the world would be better for sure. It's such a shame so many of us have lost sight of that 'true' self which I truly believe is love.
