“Pride

makes us

artificial

and humility

makes us real.”

.

~ Thomas Merton

.

When it is my way or the highway,

my will, not God’s will, I become

the phoniest of the phonies,

the wannabe Hollywood actor

whose whole life is scripted.

When you think you are humble … you’re not.

Today, just be the real deal,

lead with the heart,

be the kind, loving, patient, tolerant,

forgiving and compassionate soul

that your Higher Power wants you to be.

Happiness is being the real humble deal.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

“Have a heart

that never hardens,

and a temper

that never tires,

and a touch

that never hurts.”

.

~Charles Dickens

.

It’s the Golden Rule again.

If you want people to be tolerant of you,

tolerate them.

If you ant people to be patient with you,

be patient with them.

If you want people to be kind to you,

be kind to them.

Today, think before you act,

make sure you are motivated by a soft heart.

Kindness is a patient heart that never hurts.

Kindness is the beginning of a life filled with love.
