June 23, 2023 - Readings in Recovery: Today's Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation

 

Friday, June 23, 2023

Today’s Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:

Let us open our natures, throw wide the doors of our hearts and let in the sunshine of good will and kindness.

 Orison Swett Marden

Kindness is among the gifts we can most easily spread among others. The more we give of kind words and deeds, the more we discover that kindness is like a burning candle which lights many other candles without losing a trace of its own brightness. Our kindnesses are assets which return unexpected dividends when we invest them in the happiness of others. Kindness is the very basis of love. It softens the most severe anger and gladdens the hardest hearts.

No kindness is too small to win and hold the affection of others because it is made up of gentleness, love, generosity, unselfishness, and caring.

What kindness do I have to offer today?

Hazelden Foundation
