“Kindness” by Bernadette Ballezza
Some weeks ago I published a lovely short story written by a lady called Bernadette Ballezza. Today I was absolutely thrilled to get an email from Bernadette, who lives in the USA. I am constantly amazed by the power of blogging and how quickly messages travel from one continent to another. Bernadette has kindly given me permission to share some more of her ideas with you- I wonder how quickly my PLN can share this truly positive message and I wonder how many countries and continents we can influence for the better by just a few well chosen thoughts and comments?
KINDNESS by Bernadette Ballezza
We don’t always have to be brave.
Sometimes we lack valor.
We don’t always have to be fearless.
Sometimes we get lost in despair.
We don’t always have to be trusting.
Sometimes we have doubts.
We don’t always have to be right.
Sometimes we are to blame.
We don’t always have to be happy.
Sometimes we become disheartened.
We don’t always have to be the winner.
Sometimes we feel conquered.
We don’t always have to be infallible.
Sometimes we make mistakes.
We don’t always have to be grounded.
Sometimes we lose our way.
We don’t always have to be strong.
Sometimes we are fragile.
But we must always try to be kind.
Bernadette Ballezza
