without true kindness
we are an impotent
DEAD planet
floating in the black spaces of our beings
without good thoughts and feelings
with static sparks of electric souls
blowing through the holes we let blast out our pain
turning us inside out
spilling our guts and dreams into blood and acid rain
black swirling dust that hits the lungs and fills the mind with grit
gets underneath the glasses of our idiocyntric beings
our corporate mindset society
walking through life like a zombie
are we
without the true kindness of feelings
nothing material matters then
when you have no one
left
and you are ashes
my friend died and many wrote about her and cried and there was a rainbow in the winter snow above my trailer home
going over it to Heaven
a promise
I miss her
and hope when I die
someone will have also
been blessed by me

What could be greater than to realize this?
That kindness is the way to all gain and all knowing

That kindness is the only thing that ever matters
What else is there to be which takes us further

Than being kind to someone for no reason?
Other than to be kind!


Loving those around us is the only way to anything
Because there’s no distinction between them and us

When we give to someone, we give to ourselves as well
Not because giving might bring us some nice reward

But because that person is us and we are them!
Not just similar to us, for that's not enough

We're each guided by the same force
And made of the very same stuff!

Kindness is our greatest gift to ourselves
Kindness is our birthright and our responsibility

Kindness is our way home
Kindness is the true religion of all the universe!


[Gordon Rosenberg]

Love is patient, Love is kind
Love is learning to be blind.

To others faults, it keeps no score,
Love is learning much much more.


Love protects and always trusts,
Perseverance is a must.

Love is facing stormy weather,
Hand in hand we walk together.


Love is honest, not deceiving,
In God and others we keep believing.

Love is learning to forgive
As Jesus taught us how to live.


True love we find will not forsake
But always gives more than it takes.

Love is learning to rejoice
In all we face, it is our choice.


We are learning the meaning of love
As gifted to us by God above.

[Marcell Billinghurst]

Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible
Comfort of feeling safe with a person,

Having neither to weight thoughts,
Nor measure words--but pouring them

All right out--just as they are
Chaff and grain together,

Certain that a faithful hand will
Take and sift them,

Keep what is worth keeping,
And with the breath of kindness

Blow the rest away....!


[George Eliot (English novelist)]

a lady was glad I was kind to her. she said it is so rare
sometimes we get scared
want to hide
awkward when someone steps beyond their shell and does for us something kind
we want to ask why?
For me the why has often been bad and something I was later hurt by
and blamed myself for believing in love again
sometimes I think it easier to just be
friends

Please send everyone an angel
And trust them with its care

Someone or something for them to love
And to always be there.


Please send everyone an angel
One to help them fill their days

With hope, love and laughter
And the warmth of sunshine rays.


Please send everyone an angel
To share their evenings under twinkling stars

Keep them warm during cold nights
And to feel very peaceful with delight.


Please send everyone an angel
The very best one you can find.

Please send everyone an angel
A true friend's hard to find.


[Marita Manalo Domingo]
