The First Four

Four sticky notes, ‘You are beautiful!’, ‘You are enough!’, ‘You are loved!’ and ‘Thank you for being you!’.

A lot goes into it. Who will see it? Will it brighten up their day? Will it spread kindness? Will I make an impact? I don’t know and I don’t think it’s for me to know, I don’t think spreadable kindness is something I can easily measure. I think what counts is the thought and the effort to brighten up someone’s day.

I try to live every day knowing that everyone has a different experience in life, so even if their actions or tones appear negative or otherwise, they should still be treated with kindness and compassion. I think in an effort and campaign to spread kindness, it’s important to see everyone from as many perspectives as possible.
