Gratitude. Noun: the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness.
Nothing fills the heart of the hearer with so much joy as one who speaks with the resonance of "I am so thankful for your friendship, for your love, for your help." Little words in size but HUGE on impact to the dry, wounded or hurt soul.
If you wanna be a "heavy hitter", then throw some of these words around the office, around a stranger, your friend, your lover and yes, a child. We always have time — speak to that someone the way you desire to be talked to. It never disappoints.
Kindness. In a world where most of life is about power, money, greed and how I can get ahead, there is nothing more important than a positive outlook. I don't mean the "fake it till you make it" brand. Positivity is a frequency that carries a high vibratory energy from your heart center.
One of the highest frequencies comes from your heart and the easiest first step you can take is the act of kindness. Sometimes it is just a heartfelt smile, a true compliment, jumping in to help another in need. This is all part of making that first step onto your path.
It's easy to take that first step, so try it — be intentional and be kind.
