Acts of Love
“A thousand words will not leave so deep an impression as one deed.” —Henrik Ibsen
I have always been intrigued by words. I even took a class in etymology in college. While the word kindness is a noun and refers to a quality (being kind), it implies an action – deliberately doing good to others. Ahh, that “doing” part is the important thing, is it not? We can use beautiful words and share well-wishes for others but will make a difference is how we follow through on those words. It is really simple to show an act of kindness. A warm smile – yeah, one that goes to your eyes and shines out love – or a message of gratitude, compassion or love sent to someone just because you want to lift their spirits. The beauty of doing when it comes from the heart is that it is all about the receiver. When we give unselfishly, we are not thinking about what reward we are getting back. When was the last time you complimented someone and how did it make you feel? That’s the reward! It’s an inner feeling of joy from knowing that someone else benefitted in a good way from your action.
Dear Angels, as I complimented a friend today on one of her qualities, I could see her reaction to the words and it warmed my heart that I shared what I was thinking instead of just holding it inside. So often, we want to say complimentary things to others but hold back in doing so. How important is it that we share our thoughts?
Dear Ones, we invite you to think about how you feel when you hear uplifting words from another. It is important to support and encourage each other. If you are uncomfortable speaking the words, write it out in a message. Giving gratitude is you showing love in a huge way. The energy of gratitude and love are the highest frequencies that exist. Not only are you lifting another person, but you are emitting a frequency in your world that affects the entire vibration on earth. You are impacting your planet in a positive way. Therefore, Dear Ones, we encourage you to speak the words, write the words, and most of all to share with each other these messages of love and appreciation. Do it as soon as you have the thought. Your mind is so busy processing the thousands of thoughts and ideas running through it constantly, so it is less likely that you will act on the thought if you put it off until a later time. Create a shift in the frequency by your actions. That is what will be remembered and that is how you change a planet.
Dear Angels, thank you. I love you. Namaste y’all.
Today, I promise to keep sharing acts of kindness every day.
