Have you ever been asked by a friend to do something you really did not want to do? Even if it was not a hard task but it just did not trigger your “want to” at all? Or maybe while growing up, the parents asked you for favors and the ole, “but mom” came out of your mouth? Maybe seeing a homeless man standing on the corner with a sign that reads “anything will help”?

There is a voice inside our mind, that starts talking to us in all of these situations… have you noticed lately what that voice is saying? Is it saying “oh hell no, I’m not doing that!” While you verbally agree to do whatever has been asked? Did you think that your mom could ask your sister to do something sometime instead of always asking you? Do you wonder what this man did to end up dirty and worn standing and begging for money?

More importantly, do we ever act on such things and if we do, how does the heart feel while doing it?

Is that voice going mad with anger and resentment or is it filled with kindness and love? Is it possible for us to complete whatever task is handed to us with a happy heart? To find the benefit that grows deep inside of us from doing a good deed? Today, I am working on my openness, my kindness and my heartfelt love to other people. This is the real challenge, to find love inside of ourselves and spread it around to others!

Today, I will go and be lovely! May it cover my whole being and you as well! Hopes and wishes to all lovely’s!
