Kindness

It is true that kindness
seems to have stepped back into the shadows
as of late.

But, if not you ... who?

Who will resurrect that small, brief act
that can turn, not just a moment,
but an entire life around?
Who will speak a gentle word?
Who will offer unrewarded assistance?
Who will give selflessly?
Who will reach out - as an offer -
not in expectation?

Kindness is not lost.
It is hiding ... in plain sight.
Dust it off.
Bring it out.
Share it eagerly.
Gift it freely.

It is in the gracious moment
of kindness
that we can truly change the world.
