Remember Mindfulness – close eyes briefly

Kindness

Kindness and compassion are important factors for
people with addiction problems. The word
‘kindness’ originates from the old English word
‘kin’ for ‘family’ and ‘connection’. Showing
kindness to another is sharing their trouble and
pain, as we would do in any relationship we care
about. Kindness is consideration and respect, not
only to others but to ourselves. Am I ready today to
show kindness to anyone that I see in need?

Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible.
The Dalai Lama.
Kindness is what binds a healthy society together. It
should never be given selectively; it should be
shared amongst everyone. I cannot expect to receive
kindness from strangers if I am not prepared to
show kindness myself. When I work the Steps and
have some experience of sober living, it is then my
responsibility to extend the hand of friendship and
kindness to others. That is what is meant by Step
Twelve. Today I ask to be ready to extend the hand
of friendship and kindness to anyone in need.
