A Small Act of
Kindness
The storms of life take its toll on individuals at
times. It seems as though sometimes our
circumstances have no beginning or end.
In our minds life is too hard to muster.
Individuals are laden with stress, depression, anxiety; leaving them
overwhelmed, putting up walls and developing more problems and then more
problems soon to find themselves in a state of despair and nowhere to
turn.
Let’s make the shift now with paying it forward, random acts
of kindness and just one small act of kindness.
Enter farms, agriculture, horses, nature and the ability to just breath
and be part of something bigger than ourselves.
God planted the world with all of its beauty. Because we have so many people and so much
technology we have forgotten what it is like to live off the land and what a
true act of kindness in honoring the peace that nature provides. Smell the flowers, watch the combine, hear
the grain, ride the horses, breath the smell, play games like tag, hide and
seek, red rover, and many other simple games. Learn about life lessons through the
interaction of horses, cats, dogs, rabbits and other livestock.
Enter the door of the barn can you feel the peace, smell the
hay and horses. What a beautiful
smell. Now can you touch the hay, touch
and pet the horses, pet the cats and just breathe. Just take a very deep breathe. Now feel the
walls, feel the stalls, picture the barn in your mind, picture the cornfields,
bean fields, picture the grain bins and the old buildings. Let’s pet the horses again and breathe. Can you feel the shift? Can you feel the love breathing in and
breathing out?
A small act of kindness means that individuals are able to
experience this environment with all of its beauty and then magic begins to
happen. A small act of kindness has changed
someone’s life forever. They can go to school with lots of energy and
self-confidence. They can go in public
and not be afraid. They can solve
problems and they can love again. God
provided us with a setting and they give themselves permission to breathe it in
and experience the moment. A small act
of kindness has changed a life forever.
God has provided us with a very special dream.
A quote I love “The moment you’re ready to quit usually is
the moment right when a miracle happens”.
