Stories of Kindness from Around the World

The following is an excerpt from my book Walk Your Path with Love and Courage.
Heart-Centered
Living a heart-centered life changes our view of the world around us. We can maintain a loving manner even when a person or situation annoys us. We can see things through the lens of compassion, love, empathy and kindness. We do not feel the need to react in a negative way. It is not that we are seeing things unrealistically, that everything is sweetness and light. Instead, we can see others as they are without judging them, forgiving them the hurt they may cause us whether it is intentional or unintentional. We see things as they truly are not as we wish them to be. Living a heart-centered life gives us peace, comfort, joy, forgiveness, and understanding for ourselves and others. It becomes a way of life. All will see the love that shines from deep within us as we lead by example.
