I'm the king of my own land
Facing tempests of dust, I'll fight until the end
Creatures of my dreams raise up and dance with me!

"Kindness is one of the gentle expressions of love. We grow in grace when we become aware that one of God's gifts to us can be that we may share our loving kindness with all of creation. People all over the world are seeking peace of mind, solutions to everyday problems, better relationships with other people, and a more meaningful way of life. Surely we are aware of the room for improvement within ourselves and in our life. A healthy serving of loving kindness--both giving and receiving--could make a difference!"
~John Marks Templeton
(Worldwide Laws of Life)
~*~
"What if we--just you and me--made a commitment to mindfully integrate kindness into each and every day of our lives? We would start a kindness revolution. Let's do it. Let's become the proverbial pebbles in the pond and send out ripples of kindness into the world each day. Those whose hearts are touched by our kindness will, hopefully, be encouraged to pass it on, and a revolution of much-needed kindness will have begun."
~Sue Patton Thoele
~*~
"Many years ago, early in our relationship, my wife, Devers, said something that impressed me profoundly. "You are very kind, generous, and caring-- when you stop long enough in what you are doing for it to occur to you. What you have never learned is the discipline of kindness. This means kindness that is not a matter of mood or convenience. It means kindness as a basic way of functioning. It is in you as a potential, but it doesn't happen without consciousness and discipline." "The discipline of kindness"--I have learned to love that phrase. When I mention it in lectures, everyone seems instantly to know what it means--just as, I suspect, you do now."
~Nathaniel Branden
(Self-Esteem Every Day)
~*~
“Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to a divine purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: That we are here for the sake of others…for the countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by a bond of sympathy. Many times a day, I realize how much my outer and inner life is built upon the labors of people, both living and dead, and how earnestly I must exert myself in order to give in return as much as I have received.”
~Albert Einstein

Hey Sweetie! 022117
Hey Sweetie,
Happy Tuesday!!!
I'm delighted you are here
Thanks for all you do for me
We know there are unkind forces in our world
If we want to fight back against the unkind -
To push back the tide of the unkind -
Then we must make it our mission to be Kind
Kindness may seem weak up against unkindness
But Kindness generates from a far more powerful force
The Power of Love
Let us dedicate ourselves as Warriors of Kindness
To intentionally, mindfully and actively
Commit Acts of Kindness each day
Think of ways you can be kind - make a battle plan
Then go forth and conquer with Kindness
: )
The more of us who do this
The stronger the tide of Kindness will be in our world
The more of us who do this
The stronger the tide of Kindness will be in our world
Here are Ten Simple Acts of Kindness
1. Pay for the coffee, the toll, or the bus fare for the person behind you
2. Let the person who seems rushed cut in front of you
3. Bring coffee (OR TEA!) tomorrow morning to a co-worker
4. Hold the door open for someone
5. Be someone’s cheerleader
6. Listen when no one else wants to
7. Tip generously
8. Smile at people
9. Send paper thank you notes
10. Leave nice comments on blogs, Twitter, and Facebook (HINT) LOL
(You don't need to leave me nice comments, but do leave them for others)
Bonus:
Every night before you go to bed,
think of three things you’re grateful for.

Patience is learning how to wait when you really don't want to. It's discovering things you like to do while you're waiting, and becoming so happy with. . . what you're doing that you forget you're waiting.
Patience is taking time every day to dream your dreams and develop the confidence in yourself to change your dreams into reality.
Patience is being good to yourself and having the faith to hold on to your dreams, even as days go by when you can't see how they will come true.
Patience is loving others even when they disappoint you and you don't understand them. It's knowing how to let go and accept others as they are and forgive them for things they have done.
Patience is loving yourself and giving yourself time to grow; it's doing things that keep you healthy and happy, and it's knowing that you deserve the best in life and are willing to work for it, no matter how long it takes.
Patience is being willing to face whatever challenges life gives you, realizing that life has also given you the strength and courage to endure and deal with each challenge.
Patience is the ability to continue to love and laugh no matter what your circumstances may be, because you recognize that in time those circumstances will change, and that love and laughter are what give life deeper meaning, and you the determination to continue to have patience.

MUSIC: "S.O.S. d'un Terrien en détresse" performed by Dimash Kudaibergen
The Amazing Dimash!
I posted my two favorite songs performed by Dimash (so far) last Wednesday. I am very impressed with him. If you missed those two songs, I highly recommend you go back and listen to him sing them. He is phenomenal! These videos I am posting are from his competition on the show Singer 2017 currently on the Hunan Television Network.
Singer 2017 is the first season of Chinese television series Singer (A version of American Idol). This contest is being aired Saturday nights from January 21 to April 22, 2017 on Hunan Television. It is in this contest that we have discovered an amazing gifted voice - Dimash Kudaibergen from Kazakhstan. I can't get Hunan TV so I've been keeping up with the contest through their Wikipedia page and YouTube. I don't know how they score the contest but from what I've been able to discern, it looks like Dimash has won first place with four of the six different songs so far. I think he is currently in first place overall with a slight lead over the artist in second place. He seems to be a real sweetheart with a phenomenal voice. I am hoping he wins the contest as he has already won my heart.

~*~
It is not that you must be free from fear.
The moment you try to free yourself from fear,
you create a resistance against fear.
Resistance, in any form, does not end fear.
What is needed, rather than running away
or controlling or suppressing or any other resistance,
is understanding fear; that means,
watch it,
learn about it,
come directly into contact with it.
We are to learn about fear, not how to escape from it,
not how to resist it through courage and so on.
~J. Krishnamurti
~*~
Anger is a response that can lead to harm if
we don't evaluate what we are upset about.
Ask yourself what you are afraid of,
as anger is almost always fear in disguise.
If we think something or someone threatens us,
we feel fear--fear that we are inadequate,
that our lives are out of control,
that things won't go our way.
Then we fight.
Find out what you're upset about.
We rarely are upset for the reason we think.
