Be Kind.

My first post about our soul! This is a hard topic of health for me to talk about. Having a healthy soul is hard to write about from an outsiders’ perspective because everyone’s soul is so different. Not a single person can determine what a healthy soul looks or feels like because everyone’s idea of a healthy soul is different. I would like to share what I think is a key component for most of humanity in order to have a healthy soul. 

Being Kind. 

That’s it. For me, being kind is the one thing that everyone can do no matter what. It is one quality that every healthy soul possesses if they choose to. 

Now, before I continue I want to take a minute to talk about what I feel like constitutes a healthy soul. When I think of someone’s soul it is a personal reflection of who a person is. A person’s soul represents how they see the world, how they see themselves, what drives that person when it comes to feelings, decisions, and choices in life. A healthy soul is a soul that is satisfied and content with the way they are living their life. That person can juggle the struggles of life in a healthy way because their soul is at peace. Our soul represents who we are and all of us deserves to have a healthy soul. 

Jumping back, being kind is very simple. 

I challenge everyone reading this to close their eyes and imagine a time when someone was mean to them on purpose. Imagine how that made you feel. 

Now imagine what would have happened if the person had chosen to be kind to you instead. Now imagine how you would have felt. 

If we all chose to be kind, instead of hateful and malicious towards each other, relationships and life as a whole would be much simpler. Being kind is not hard!! Being kind means choosing the compliment instead of the put down, it’s choosing to share materialistic items instead of hoarding them, it’s choosing to put someone else’s feelings ahead of your own for a split second. Kindness comes in many forms and it doesn’t have to be anything big. Kindness comes easy with the right mindset. We are all the same. No one is better than another because we are all bacteria and matter. Chemistry wise-  we are all made of the same particles and cells. So...if we are all the same at our core then why do we treat each other so different? We as humans want to feel good about who we are so bringing others down makes us feel good temporarily but being kind brings everlasting happiness to your soul. 

Bottom line, we are all created exactly the same and no one is better then the next. So heal your soul, be kind and always remember the “bigger picture.” :)
