Kindness Rock

There is a lot of hate going on in the world whether you see it or not. I have been asked to create a rock that shares kindness in my class. You choose a word and are to write a post about what it means to you. I chose the word, ‘bliss.’ The book definition of the word ‘bliss’ is perfect happiness or great joy. The reason why I chose this word is because I feel like people need to be happier. I want people to view the world in a better way and I feel that they first need to find happiness in their lives. I hope that in this new year others are able to find this rock, understand the meaning behind it, and pass it along to someone else who may need some uplifting.

Ever Consider What is Going on in Others Lives?

Have you ever thought about what was going through the person next to you’s mind? Maybe they have a really hard test coming up or maybe they are struggling with their dogs passing recently. You never consider all of the options because there are far too many to think of.

Have you ever thought about how whatever is wrong is making them feel? Maybe they feel that they are all alone and need someone to talk to. Maybe they are fed up with people and just need space. Maybe they just need a hug. You’ll never know unless you ask them.

Just think about how others may be feeling. Maybe offer to listen or let someone with higher authority know so that they can step in or have someone who can do it. Just don’t sit there and do nothing. The person might be really thankful or angry, but at least you tried to do the right thing.
