Be Kind

Leave a comment

The daily writing prompt is asking me to – “Write about a random act of kindness you’ve done for someone.”

Instead of talking about that things I’ve done in the past, I’ll focus on what more kindness I can do for people. I think I’ll increase my charitable donations. I’ll try to be more aware of those I encounter every day and help where I can by just extending more common curtesy and help when I see someone struggling, be it physically or mentally.

My mother was one of those people who always said there is good in people. Some of it is a little harder to find in some, but that was her philosophy. It’s a good one for me to keep in mind in dealing with people.

Cruelty and nastiness is easy to get sucked into. I have to rise above that and continue to try to be better than that.

I’d like to be remembered as a kind and giving person. And the only way to accomplish that is to work at it each day.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
