Keep your heart and eyes peeled for a sad stranger. It won’t be hard to find one, will it?
It is a human condition based upon evolution and how our brains work that we respond to people smiling at us with a smile. We usually do it and respond before we even know what we’re smiling about other than the fact that we inherently become more happy when we see a smiling face.
What happens when we see a sad face or a frowning face or a crying face? How do we feel then? how do we feel when we see stranger suffering and what is our natural reaction what our conditioned reaction is?
Where I’m going with this is that I think in a modern society and overtime we’ve been conditioned to find ways to look past other peoples suffering and to rationalize or to justify why it’s OK that fellow brothers and sisters created from the same source of all love light energy as we are are OK to suffer and that we should just not worry about it.
Of course, I’m being overly simplistic as I often am in these blogs just to make a point and to have a conversation and to get your mind moving in the direction of questioning how we could perhaps look at things differently and what the world would look like if we just made a little bit more effort to put more energy over to the side of the suffers.
It’s easy to walk by somebody at your office that you never really got along with so well and that you heard around the water cooler through the grapevine we’re going through some really tough personal challenges, including a divorce or maybe their family splitting up or something like that. it’s very easy to walk by because you always walk by their office and you don’t have to stop or say anything because you don’t report them or you don’t work with their department directly.
However, perhaps today, because you had heard that they are going through some tough times you’re gonna make an extra extra effort and just throw some love out there the saddest person in your office and just see how that feels.
Perhaps you’re assumptions of that person or your ideas about them maybe had more to do with you with them and if you take some time to maybe express some love and some concern for them you might get to know them a little better and in the future, you may stop into their office just because.
However, today, let’s make it mission all the time with our awareness to look for people that were feeling like their energy or their emotions are not in a good place. We can simply ask: “how are you feeling today? Is there anything I can do right now here to make you feel better?”.

The incredible thing is that any witnesses around you that see you doing that will also feel the same energetic and endorphin uplift as the person receiving your act of acknowledgment and kindness, just through the act of witnessing your kindness.
The ripple effect is extraordinary and it cost us. Literally nothing to open up our awareness a little bit more and seek out the folks energetically that need just a tiny bit of love today. It’s one of those things that if you start your day with this intention, you will see those people you will find them. You will have the opportunity to make a difference today just the acknowledgment of someone else’s existence. Sometimes people just wanna be seen and told that they matter and that they aren’t invisible.
Who’s with me on the kindness patrol today? It’s operation uplift, and all of you are now here by deputized as GratiDudes and GratiGals To let go of your concern to embarrass yourself for what other people think and to just go full on, I got pay mode with anyone that you think could use it today. And guess what? If you give a little extra love to somebody that’s actually doing OK, don’t sweat it, as they’ll still gobble up your graciousness and say: Thank you, Sir, May I have another?(Kevin Bacon Animal House Trivia, anyone?).
I can tell you from personal experience that the times in my life where I was much more giving and open with sharing my love and my affection is when I received avalanches and tsunamis of love from other people as the feedback loop for love is in real time and operates faster than the speed of light.
I would really love it if anyone of you today would share a story with me or with us about your experience today and a conversation you had with someone where you were able to use the love in your heart to uplift a perfect stranger and to take this message to heart so that we can put Our desire for loving unity in our community into real action.
Been kind and being a child of God is an active participatory endeavor, so don’t just sit back and eat from the trough and not put the work in, share the goodness in your heart with other people and uplift others so that collectively we can grow and manifest a more satisfying experience for everyone and we do that publicly demonstrating our Attitude of Gratitude.
EVERY DAY:
Love
and
Gratitude
