I did follow through on the Acts I proposed in my previous blog and I can’t believe how time has flown since then. We have been away at a conference for two days and I’ve been “out of the zone”. I am still stunned at how hard it is to do a kind thing every day. Up until now I’ve always thought that I am an incredibly kind person who puts others first and am reasonably philanthropic. I’m not sure anymore.
I just sat down here at the computer and I’ve been really wracking my brain to try and think of something kind I might have done for someone else during the past 2 days. Perhaps I have, and maybe I don’t think they are siginificant enough to document here?
This project is really making me challenge myself and who I think I really am. Maybe we all think we are kind and generous and don’t have to try any harder. I personally believe now, after 7 days on this journey that we are all living life way to fast to worry about people who aren’t in our “inner circle”. Of course if somone right in front of me needed my help I would stop and help, but if it was someone who wasn’t on the path I was travelling, would I actually notice? I’m not so sure anymore. Are you?
