DAY 38 Mar. 8: The practice for today is KINDNESS. Every day we hear of random and senseless acts of violence. By participating in the counter-revolution of kindness started by Anne Herbert ["Practice random acts of kindness and senseless acts of beauty"] you are contributing to a culture of nonviolence.
If someone does or says something unkind to me, if I return kindness, I am not simply being kind to that particular person, I am being kinder to myself. I am taking one more step towards being free. I am turning wrath away from myself, as well as being kind to the other person and by doing so, I am reinforcing kindness as a part of my personality.

"My religion is kindness" -The Dalai Lama

Today: I will do something kind for someone for no reason other than to be kind. I will bring beauty to a place where it may be needed without letting anyone know I was the one who did it. I will write about how I felt and then share this story with someone.
