Heart Talk: Poetic Wisdom for a Better Life

by Cleo Wade

There is no way to give kindness to another without knowing it in ourselves first. We must continually ask ourselves (especially on our tough days when we are feeling the most hurt or irritated): Is this the kindest thought I could have? Is this the kindest thing I could say? Is this the kindest action I could take in this situation? To achieve a kinder world, we must approach kindness with ambition and dedication. We must practice it in every moment of our lives. Kindness is that important.

“Don’t wait on anyone to tell you what you are worth. You have to be the first person who knows what you are worth and can say what you are worth.”
