From Critical to Kind

"Kind thoughts are rarer than either kind words or deeds. They imply a great deal of thinking about others. This in itself is rare, but they also imply a great deal of thinking about others without the thoughts being criticisms. This is rarer still."



— E.W. Faber



Imagine how our world would change if we each decided to exchange each critical thought for a kind and encouraging one. To get an inkling of how powerful such an exchange would be, try this experiment: For the next 21 days (the length of time it takes to create a new habit), do your best to suspend all judgment and criticism of others. Instead, wrap every person you meet in a warm and loving thought of kindness. Don't just limit this to those you meet physically, but apply it to everyone who comes to mind. And for those you consider enemies, make certain the thought is especially kind. There is a very good chance that by the time the experiment is finished, the way you habitually think about your fellow man will be forever changed.

May you always choose the kinder thought.

And may you always be aware that you are loved beyond measure and a cherished blessing to me.

Until tomorrow,

May your day be filled
with all things good,
