Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Changing the World


--by brindlegirl, posted Jul 31, 2016
I don't normally "repost" others writings but this is so beautiful. So true. And something I vow to do daily. And most days I do. I am changing the world. YOU are changing the world. We all are changing the world. 💜 

"She felt like doing her part to change the world, so she started by giving thanks for all of the blessings in her life, rather than bemoaning all that was missing from it.

Then she complimented her reflection in the mirror, instead of criticizing it as she usually did. Next, she walked into her neighborhood and offered her smile to everyone she passed, whether or not they offered theirs to her.

Each day she did these things, and soon they became a habit.

Each day she lived with more gratitude, more acceptance, more kindness.

And sure enough, the world around her began to change. Because she had decided so, she was single-handedly doing her part to change it."
