World Kindness Day

World Kindness Day

Reflection

“The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up.” –Mark Twain

Prayer

Spirit of kindness,

We should marvel more often at how you made us both sacred and social. You made us in such a way that we are transformed inwardly through our service on behalf of others. On World Kindness Day, help us embrace this great mystery of our common bond, by seeking to cheer one another and show each other genuine kindness. Colleagues and friends, patients and families and all of our neighbors. May we find inner peace by serving them all with kindness. Amen.
