I have always tended to have a natural propensity for kindness. For example, I remember in primary school befriending a little girl in calipers who was being bullied. Tanya was her name, and she was the sweetest soul, and one of my dearest memories is playing with her, and sticking up for her against the bullies.
However, I have come to appreciate that kindness is not complete and pure in the absence and or neglect of kindness for oneself. I have along my path allowed my kindness to be exploited and manipulated. It is indeed an art form to balance and channel kindness without being exploited. So, the underlying message is….go court self kindness in whatever way it may manifest for you…..a massage, a bubbly spa bath and or sitting in a calming garden setting. In whatever form…. Let self kindness light your way!!!!!!!
