Extending KIndness
A new month arrives and with it the opportunity to start something new, and leave other things behind...
In a few short weeks, the school season will begin once more, and summer will gradually fade into fall, which is one of my favorite times of the year.
Today, I received two separate messages about kindness. It was a reminder to me to be more mindful of the opportunities that come knocking on my door to exercise more kindness. And so, I share them here with you, in hopes that you too, may be moved to extend kindness to others throughout this month.
