Kindness...

The last post I was angry and sad. And I woke up today thinking that, we see all those injustices, and lies... We feel, but we cannot be affected in a way we begin acting the same. We don't fight hate with hate. We don't fight lies with more lies.

We cannot allow our inner kindness to be diminished by it, criticized. We cannot allow our inner flame to extinguish, defeated by this dirty mud.

Yes, we can balance light and dark. And dark does not mean evil. It does not mean that you don't care about the others.

Some people just act in a bad way towards the others, because of ego, because they want to show off, by diminishing others to feel empowered, or just by the simple pleasure of being evil.

Some, when identity with something, like vampirism for example, and "getting the wrong idea of it" begin acting like a "dark and evil being", just because they believe it is the "expected behavior".

And this is should not be the way of an evolved soul.

A person I admire and respect a lot wrote a tweet about kindness that moved me.

"...Don’t be afraid of being kind and of a helpful gesture no matter how small. To someone, it may change a life. Ignore the haters and their negativity, they can’t move a grain of sand but together we can move mountains"

So maybe just a word you say, just a compliment, a "good morning" , an unexpected message of kindness when someone is going through a sad moment, just by talking, even silly things, or being able to be there just to listen, you can be affecting someone's life more than you imagine.

So just because you follow specific Paths, just because you identify with things that "people" would link to darkness the way they see darkness, it does not mean you cannot be gentle, kind. It does not mean you don't care about the others.

We are not indifferent, we are not haters. And being kind is not a sign of weakness, but one of comprehension about your self and the others.

"Our unwavering darkness should be no hindrance to kindness, a gesture capable of echoing empathy through courage. ☥"
