If only one could apply it to others with a paint roller. But, I think we all could use a good dose of kindness and wisdom. Either given to us or to give to someone else. Thanks for posting
And your quote has me thinking…Having wisdom and living by it, modeling it, and sharing it is a great kindness to others! And you, my friend, are so wise AND so kind and I appreciate you! 🙂
(((HUGS))) 🙂
Dogs are such wonderful company and small dogs are easy to fit into life. 🙂 Until Cooper, I’d always had large dogs like labs, golden retrievers, etc. Cooper is my first small dog and I’ve so enjoyed that he is a good traveler, a good companion, good around the house, etc. 🙂
Kindness and wisdom
Are what we need
That and an occasional
Decent feed
And a glass of wine
From time to time
A few clever words
That manage to rhyme
A girl in my arms
With moist red lips
With flowing hair
And welcoming hips
A river to cross
A mountain to climb
But to do all this
I need more time
I still need to laugh
I still need to sing
Darling, I still need
Everything
But I don’t mind giving others a head start. I like the idea of sprinting to the front in the last few hundred metres of a marathon. Overtaking tired and unsuspecting opponents. Hearing the applause. Basking in the adoration of the bewildered crowd. Charming the ladies with clever repartee whilst barely puffing. Smiling for the interview.
As I say – I like the idea. I’ve never actually done it.

Exactly! We need both, and plenty of them too!

A very poignant quote Kate, I’ve been kind today but wisdom is tired and resting.
