Today is a very busy day for me, but I am currently sitting in English typing this post. dedication is key!
I didn't realize how often I automatically assume that if I do something good and nice for another person that they'll do the same in return. I assume it so often that I'm let down a lot, I don't automatically expect it in return how ever I feel as though people should at least recognize the fact that I'm trying to and others are trying to put good into the world.
Yesterday it hit me, like a train, why? why expect something back? I'm doing it just to do it for me its just an automatic response, I love to spread the joy and do good just for the hell of it. I'd like some recognition for my good deeds once in a while however its not at the forefront of my intentions, its literally just an automatic response for me. But what made me think I'd like some recognition was a person I encountered yesterday I had to say no to. They got extremely upset. And it really made me angry, why are you mad the one time I say no? Why after every single other thing I've done for you and others I care about and others that need help, with this one time why do you think you're justified in being angry?
Its not okay to be honest if you are out of the good of your heart or just automatically doing good just for the literal good of it why take the negative response, and let it affect you? If you've never really needed the praise before and the major acknowledgement before, why this one time when someone puts a damper on your usual good intentions is it affecting you or me? It shouldn't we wont let it, I wont let it. I work hard to put good in the world and hopefully get good out, and if this is the case if this is my goal or your goal if your reading this then let it fall off. Try if you don't or if you feel weird just doing you know small favors for people or small acts of kindness, try and do so. You never know the effect we have on people as we go throughout our day. We have both major and minor affects on the people we face and see each day so why not put a little joy and kindness or happiness into their days? Just think how it feels when someone returns that unto to you, its kind of amazing. so I guess today's goal is to go and be kind and brush off the bad, be kind and put good out to hopefully get good in. Remember a small act of kindness can only grow bigger with time.
