I found this very powerful poem on one of Roger’s posts a week or so ago and felt it was worthy of being shared far and wide. Thank you, Cyranny … and Roger!

How dare you
Wave the flag of Freedom
Over your head…
Crying over rights
You never lost,
Liberties never taken.
You claim to fight
A tyranny that
Doesn’t exists, and
Stomp on the
Very bases of democracy…
How dare you say
You represent
Our country’s might?
Just because
You speak louder,
Doesn’t mean that you’re right!
We all know how, of late, kindness, respect, compassion, and the like seem to have gone by the wayside, right. Last night, a blogging friend shared a blog titled “Cyranny’s Cove”, and specifically the post I am about to share. I love the concept … one act of kindness a month. That isn’t too hard, is it? What if everybody in the world followed this … tried hard to bring ‘kindness’ back into our society? Anyway, take a look if you will, and let’s help Cyranny spread the word, okay?
Happy first day of August, Lovelies!
As you might know, I have been waiting for a while to post this, and I am quite excited to finally launch this new, monthly Kind Hearted Challenge!
What is the Kind Hearted Challenge about?
It is really simple… First of all, it is not a challenge per se, but more an invitation to take a moment and think about doing kind things around you. You don’t have to participate every month, and if you join in, you have all month to complete your mission.
I think that spreading the word out is the best way to get at least a couple of people to think “You know what? That’s really easy, I think I’ll give it a try!” There are so many free, easy acts of kindness that we can do in our everyday life… Things to make other people around us…
