Passing through an air port in North Carolina; I noticed this bracelet. I figured it would be a great gift for my wife. After checking out, I figured why not get one for myself.
Most people think kindness is free & can be given with no cost. I believe the opposite. Kindness takes a special price that can’t necessarily be seen. It can fatigue you, when you give too much. It can anger you, when it’s not reciprocated. It can bring jealousy, when noticed between others . Etc. So I simply believe Kindness is important because it is the start of a snow ball effect or even domino effect. It’s the beginning of everything good in life.
I don’t truly know what this bracelet means to me. At the end of the day it’s just rope & metal, but I guess similar to myself “simple is extraordinary”. As far as inspiration. I think independence would be my agenda. Not push people away, but bring your own ideas, compassion and love to the table. Individuality is a lot of things, but I find it amazing!
