Today’s Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
Gentleness is not a quality exclusive to women. — Helen Reddy
Each of us has our soft side: maybe it’s when we’re petting a kitten, caring for a baby robin with an injured wing, or soothing a crying child who is afraid. Behaving in a gentle way toward others gives us warm feelings inside. It also encourages others to treat us gently, too.
We don’t always feel like being gentle. If we’re sad or worried about school or a friend, we might not even notice the people around us who need our gentleness. But when we remember gentleness, it lifts our spirits. Two people will always be happier when we’re gentle — the person we’ve been gentle to and ourselves.
Who can I share my gentleness with today?
