Undivided Kindness – Thoughts #1

Images of Integrity

“A ‘still, small voice’ speaks the truth about me, my work, or the world.”

This assignment emphasizes self-kindness, a core principle at Kind Living, where all kindness includes self-care. Prioritize well-being to access inner wisdom. Regularly engage in activities that bring joy, inspiration, and nourishment.

A past participant shared: “For my kindness to myself, I chose an object I loved. Instead of trying to guess which one might be ‘unwanted,’ I chose the one that truly resonated with me. It has been a source of joy and inspiration.”

This highlights choosing what you genuinely love. We often second-guess ourselves, opting for “safe” choices over authentic ones, fearing selfishness. However, self-care differs from self-indulgence, and listening to your inner voice is vital.

Honesty is key. As Parker illustrated, self-deception can occur. To avoid this and the perception of self-indulgence, we may suppress our needs. Filling your life with inspiring things fosters positive character development.
