The kindest people are not born that way; they are made.
They are the souls that have experienced so much at the hands of life; they are the ones who have dug themselves out of the dark and who have fought to turn every loss into a lesson.
The kindest people do not just exist. They choose to soften where circumstance has tried to harden them; they believe in goodness because they have seen firsthand why compassion is necessary.
They have seen firsthand why tenderness is so crucial in this world.
Encircle yourself with people who are doing the work to heal themselves.
Encompass yourself with those who want to talk to you about ideas rather than other human beings.
Encompass yourself with people who love and respect themselves, are gentle and kind and encourage connection.
Surround yourself with people who genuinely show up in your life, people who don’t just want attention, or praise, or validation from you.
Wrap yourself with those who want to grow with you. These people will change your life.
Being understood fosters a different kind of intimacy that is untouchable.
The rarest, most profound connection you will experience will not be with the person who instantly gratifies you but rather with the type of human being who sees you and sends out empathy to comfort your being
Ask yourself who makes you feel extensively diverse. Who sees you in ways you don’t see yourself?
Who pours calm and ease into your heart of yours? Those people who came to mind are rare and beautiful gifts. Never take them for granted.
Do not just be thankful for the things you deem positive in life.
Be grateful for the emotions you also feel negatively because it is within the darkness that we grow to appreciate the light.
The most challenging things in life are building you and reminding you of your capacity to overcome. Anything you have experienced thus far has defeated you.
There is power in reminding yourself of that.
You can braver the storms; that is what they are there to teach you.
Always choose to be kind
Always choose grace.
