KINDNESS goes a LONG WAY! - HAPPY HIPPIE QUOTES #82

in blog •  7 years ago 

“Three things in human life are important: the first is to be kind; the second is to be kind; and the third is to be kind.” ― Henry James

KINDNESS GOES A LONG WAY

Sadly, It is quite a common thing for people to judge others - being unkind and insensitive without truly knowing or understanding the reasons why a person is the way they are. – I find this terribly sad, because nobody has ever walked in another person’s shoes, nor travelled their path and therefore they have no right to cast judgement on them.

The reality is, you know absolutely nothing of their story, their journey - not their sufferings endured nor trials faced and in my opinion, what really needs to be remembered is... it is all of these things that shape them into the individual they become, which is also essentially the reason for their decision making.

So many people walk around with smiles plastered on their faces yet they might be dealing with something enormously painful underneath - you can just NEVER know! So try not to be so quick to write them off with stamps of disapproval.

Perhaps if everybody stopped themselves in a moment of judgement on another for whatever reason and looked instead at the person underneath with compassion, understanding and love - the world would probably be a much more pleasant place to live in.

Just some food for thought...

Happy Tuesday Steemit :)

Don't forget to be AWESOME today!

WHAT IS HAPPY HIPPIE QUOTES ALL ABOUT...

People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well neither does bathing – that’s why we recommend it daily! – Zig Ziglar

I am a total sucker for anything motivational and/or inspirational, I often spend a good amount of time browsing quotes online to share with followers on various other platforms so I figured why not make it a daily habit here on Steemit too ;)

Despite the fact that I am a complete and utter tech junkie and I love so much about our modern world - (yes, there is a lot that I DON’T like as well… but keep up people… this is a happy hippy post), I have often considered the fact that I might have been born in the wrong era.

I have an insatiable love for anything 60’s!

So here I sit - in the 21st century, perhaps minus the bell bottoms but definitely not without the happy spirit, excessive array of colour (everywhere) and juuuuust a few gadgets to boot…he he!

Welcome to…

HAPPY HIPPIE QUOTES

Until next time...

Much Love from Cape Town, South Africa xxx

Great attitude! If we all just have to live with these outlook in life it would be much more beautiful world.

Thanks @arnel :)

The beauty of kindness is it’s easy to practice. We encounter numerous opportunities during an ordinary day. For example: Hold a door open for someone. Offer a pleasant greeting to people you encounter, whether it is a smile, nod or comment. People appreciate being acknowledged. Thank people who help you. I personally thank cashiers by name. This has surprised a few, who then asked how I knew their name. I respond, I read your name tag. This usually results in us sharing a laugh.

I challenge everyone who reads @jaynie’s post today to consciously perform acts of kindness today. Then return tomorrow and leave her a comment telling her about one act of kindness you performed.

Together we can show @jaynie the power of her words and make the world a little more pleasant by practicing kindness.

Kindness definitely goes a long way and it creates a ripple that starts touching everyone around. When one person gets touched by it, he creates another ripple and this is how kindness makes a difference in the world.

Exactly: being right today does not mean to keep on being right tomorrow or in some period of time but being kind is good: firstly, right for you and your interior and as a result for those who are around, today, in a week, forever. Peace

In fact, some people hide their sadness in such a way that finding out their sorrow becomes very difficult.

gentle man is merciful. Godd post jaynie :)

Nice one. I do say this always "Never Judge someone until you've heard their stories". For every action they take, something must have prompted it which you may not know and tend to judge them wrongly.

Some people go around depressed almost every minute of the day but still cover up with a beautiful smile.

We should be kind to everyone and say nice words to people cos we never know what they're passing through.
Trust me, Nice words can go a long way to heal a broken heart.

I have "kindness, and senseless beauty" tattooed on my foot. So when I get up for the day and put my shoes on, I remember this before I walk out the door. Great post.

If most peopleare kind enough, maybe we have peaceful world right now.. Thanks for this :)

Kind heartedness is something that is on a constant decline these days. Most of us are guilty of judging others without even knowing what they are going through.

Thanks for sharing. Wishing you a Tuesday full of unlimited possibilities

Kindness matters, to be sure. As they say, you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.

This story very nice ..I appreciate your blog
.Thanks for sharing your writing story..Best of luck.

You need to make the right choices in order to be kind because everyone's needs, interests and desires are different.

Inspiring post

Fact

More of this
Thanks for sharing

Nice ones again @jaynie kindness is the best attitude to cultivate.
Nevertheless just has you have said no one has the right to judge others because they are not in the position to do that.

This is a true life story... There was a newspaper vendor that used to give this student papers to read anytime he was passing, today the guy is a legislator, and he took this vendor off the streets

Beautifull Words great Story Realy Enjoy to read Resteemed @jaynie

Absolutely right, kindness is not an character but it's an art, because when you are feeling the anger but still you showcasing the kindness towards others then that is the real art of being. In this world the most simple thing is judgement and perception and people keep judgement and perception according to their comfort level, but we have to keep in mind one fundamental thing that, how you feel if you judged wrongly instantly by unknown people. So, always remember that, treat people how you wanted to be treated by them. If all would kind, then there is no reason to find life in "Mars". Thanks for sharing.

Have a great day and stay blessed.

be kind and humble in your life, people will remember your good and bad deeds

My favourite 🤣🤣🤣👍

One pleasure and honor can read and comment on your post @ jaynie, as already said henry james three important things in human life that is being nice, and you are a great motivator I think that can give an overview in the journey of life, I am very interesting read it. Thank so much, i like you

Thank you as always Jaynie. We might be sitting next to a broken person and we wouldn't know it. We judge people too easily without knowing their story. Kindness goes a long way. Most times, it gives people a reason to live.

Ephesians 4:32 {King James Version (KJV)}
32: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

The Bible is complete. Thanks again Jaynie. You have an amazing heart.
