The kind of person I want to be

In the end, only three things matter: 

how much you loved, 

how gently you lived, 

and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you.

I want to be the kind of person that is gracious in their every act. I want to fill every room with a sense of support and well-being. I want to make people smile and show to them just ho wonderful they are. I want to be the person that no one can say a bad word about because I have never said one about another. I want to restrict my demons telling me to release venomous words. I want to clear my mind of poisoness negativity and allow only room for beautiful thoughts and kindness. I want to look for everyone's beauty and understand their cruelty.
I think it is most important to understand everyone around us as a person just as real as we are and to understand the struggles they have endured to be here today. Every moment in their life has had an impact on who they are and why they are the way they are. Instead of retaliating with cruelty I want to be able to understand why someone did what they have done. I don't believe that we should dismiss their cruelty, but maybe if we can understand it and comfort the reasons behind it they might feel the need to be a little less cruel in the future.
I like to believe that we are all inherently good and will only act otherwise with specific motivations. My main goal in life is to understand the people around me on a deeper level than I presently do. If I could be the kind of person that radiates positivity I would consider mine a life well lived. I want to make it a goal of mine to issue a number of genuine compliments each day. I think it would be healthy for myself and everyone around me if I could openly recognise the good in each person with frequency. I know how nice a compliment can be and what an impact it can make and I would be honored to bring that kind of happiness to someone’s day.
The thing is that being kind is as easy as being cruel, so why do we so often chose cruelty? I’m going to try to make this positive change in my life and I invite you to do the same. Imagine the difference we could make.
