Spiritual Awakening: Walking The Kindness Path!!!

This entry is inspired by Dr. Chuck Wall who began The Random Acts Of Kindness Movement. Kindness Awareness Week Will be held From February 9-15, 2014 and people are encouraged to visit www.kindnessusa.org and learn more about the week. While you are on the site you will learn the power that kindness has in enhancing our personal and professional lives.  Each morning when we awake we have a choice as to how our day will go. When we choose to follow our spiritual awakening and embrace the concept of kindness we will see that we have a more pleasant day then if we are angry or holding onto things from yesterday.  

When we begin to walk a kindness path and make kindness a practice as part of our spiritual awakening we begin to change our world and create a shift of positivity that improves our personal and professional lives as well as the lives around us. We can do simple things to show kindness and to pay it forward from holding the door open for someone or sharing a smile or giving someone a business card with a positive affirmation on it. When you visit www.payitforwardfoundation.org you see many great stories that will inspire you to begin walking the kindness path.

 Think of the times people have been kind to you and how it lifted your spirits and then how you being kind to others has positively impacted someone’s life. In many cases your act of kindness has a ripple effect and you never know the positive impact you have had.  On Super Bowl Sunday (2/2/14) I passed out fliers about a fundraiser I was doing for The American Cancer Society and one woman gave me $8 with a  note from a survivor and another person handed me $10. These acts of kindness made me feel good and shifted me into a positive mood and today I made a commitment to be nice to all I come in contact with. In making a decision to walk the kindness path I have enhanced my personal and professional life while also helping people lift others. In some cases all it took was showing a bit of concern and offering to hold the door open in other cases it was just a smile and a hello how are you.  I hope that this declaration Today I Choose To Walk A Path Of Kindness will inspire others to do the same and hopefully many reading this will visit http://main.acsevents.org/goto/jdogg1 and make a donation to help those affected by cancer.  The key to walking the kindness path is to be awake and aware  and keep the good feeling and emotion that being kind evokes in you and those you interact with. It is incredible what happens when you show kindness. The endorphins kick in and then you want more and more of the pleasant feeling that comes from being kind and soon you will have others following your lead as you shine your light and they shine theirs thus illuminating the world.

 A great idea to walk the kindness path is to have assorted cards made up with kindness quotes on one side and your contact information on the other as you never know who you may come in contact with and how your sharing of the card will positively impact them. By taking action and becoming a kindness ambassador you will find that you feel better and the people around you feel better.

 By making kindness an anthem you begin to awaken more and more spiritually and as a result you share your kindness with others and they also awaken to kindness.  We spend countless hours seeking for our purpose and our calling when all along we had it inside of us at that  our purpose and calling are to be kind and to help others. When we walk the path of kindness we begin to come alive and change our community thus moving in a positive direction of our goals and dreams.
