I wish I could tell every depressed child or an adult that how much proud I am of them.

How we behave here, matters.

One thing I’ve noticed about Reddit is the kind and thoughtful people on here. And once in an awhile, someone is so rude, so judgmental and just wants to fight and use their unkind words to disempower others. I’ve made it a priority to thank them for learning more about kindness! Through their unkind words, they teach me the value of caring, of being uplifting, and of forgiveness and appreciation. It’s how I’m reframing cruelty. I’m still finding the places within myself to forgive and to love. Being kind matters and it reverberates in the world. Its ripple effect is huge. Thats the world I’m creating, even though im cognizant of other humans who do not act from their heart/values and do not choose kindness. I will not stand for cruelty, I do not let it get me down. I continue to rise above and do what I can to make LOVE my mission! Sending love and good energy to the readers out there.

hoy me paso algo muy simple, pero me recordó que todavía hay mucha gente buena

mientras esperaba para cruzar la calle, una señora mayor dejo caer su dinero sin darse cuenta. antes de que pudiera reaccionar, varias personas se acercaron al mismo tiempo para poder ayudarla, nadie se conocía, nadie esperaba nada a cambio, cuando termino de guardar nos sonrío y dijo : "ojala nunca perdamos estos pequeños gestos"

seguí con mi día pensando en eso. aveces las noticias hacen parecer que todo está mal, pero momentos como este me recuerdan que la amabilidad sigue existiendo en los lugares más cotidianos.

¿cual fue el último acto de bondad que presenciaste o qué alguien tuvo con vos ?

How "emotional softness" affects those around me

Hello all you wonderful living beings,

I often default to a state of emotional softness when dealing with people. Easing the anxiety and internal pain of others by extending a gentle healing hand always seems like the right thing to do if you're me.

Interacting with another person in this state causes them to slowly mirror those feelings, stubbornness, anger, frustration tends to simmer down, like a boiling pot that has been removed from the gas burner.

Often times, they just want to see that other people are considerate of them and mindful. This is where emotional softness almost seems like magic. You can see their conscious awareness expand in real time as the realization hits. "This is what being alive could be, this is how communities and people can really be like". This way of interacting with people often causes their illusions about life to break... For their whole lives, these folks believed that their human consciousness is limited to the state they currently find themselves in. They believed that humans are fundamentally broken like it says in the bible. I am here to tell you, that kind of thinking is wrong and it's designed to prevent you from evolving your conscious awareness.

I am here to show folks they can do and be so much more. If you see yourself as broken and never learn to fix the parts that bother you, you will naturally operate on a lower level of conscious awareness. My softness and the ability for me to harness it so easily comes down to my healing journey, fixing or integrating parts of myself that kept me on a higher level of conscious awareness.
