This little poem pretty much says it all:
“I shall pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being let me do it now. Let me not defer it or neglect it for I shall not pass this way again.” - Anonymous
1. You have to stop and smell the roses.

4. Be kind to your loved ones.
5. Be kind to strangers.
6. Be kind to animals.

A Golden Rule is the act of kindness. Every time you do an act of kindness, God smiles, for this is your purpose for living. This is what life is all about. This is your quest, how many individuals today can you get to smile?
Today is all we have; we can’t undo the wrongs of yesterday; tomorrow never comes; today is all there is. Today you make your mark, you are judged by what you do today. The world needs kindness; we are in a constant state of war because humankind has not learned the golden rule. World peace is our quest. Kindness is our tool. Who dares to challenge our quest? Who dares to say it can’t be done? Who dares to get in our way? NO ONE. It is up to us. Kindness – kindness – kindness. It’s that simple.
Today’s Exercise: You guessed it. Do at least ONE simple little act of kindness and like the movie Ground Hog Day do it again and again.
Today’s Affirmation: I am loved, because I love.
Points to Ponder: Today is all we have. Yesterday is a canceled check; Tomorrow is a promissory note. Today is Cash…spend it wisely.
