Where do we begin?
How will we know how to be kind, if we are not kind to ourselves?
How will we know how to be kind to ourselves, if we have not been treated kindly.
How can we know that Love is kind, if we have not experienced kindness and Love?
How will we know how to treat all with loving kindness, if we have not seen or heard how to love with kindness?
Let us first recognize we must forgive and let go of all errors to love ourselves.
Let us forgive all our “sins”, no matter what the world teaches us.
Let us be gentle with our apparent failures and losses, inadequacies and ignorance.
Let us undo the limiting messages of those who did not know “kindness”.

Be kind to your whole and Holy Self.
Respond to all things, events and people with Loving Kindness.
You are the Healer of Ignorance and Giver of Kindness.
You set the stage for all you encounter by your demonstration.
You lead the way with your thoughts, words and deeds.
You are the giver and Receiver of all Loving Kindness.
Begin today by loving and being Kind to YOU!

May we all learn to be kind to our kin.
And everyone is Kin.
We are all family.
Forgiveness is the Key to Happiness and Inner Peace
Every morning and every night, say this prayer:
I forgive everything and everyone, every experience and every memory of the past and present that needs forgiveness.
I forgive positively everyone.
I am now forgiven by everything and everyone of the past and present that needs to forgive me.
I know that forgiveness unblocks whatever stands between me and my good.
I am grateful this is so.
Amen
