Softly

A common need unites us.

I say, as I watch the cats who argue all day sit together to hydrate. Then I thought of humans, their quirky personalities and odd responses.

In specific, how over thinkers hear a well intended message, and twist it to somehow be a painful lesson. I believe this to be a product of a misguided love. One that was harsh and just, poorly done. As we endure this devilish attention we seem to think we deserve nothing but. So we villainize trueness and resist what’s best for us.

As I reflect on such a heinous natural beauty, I grieve for the parts of us that deeply need soothing. For we as one divided society, deserve grace for this very human impropriety. Keep softness as a core piece of you. Show grace to the broken parts of you. Two key things that will allow healing to transpire with ease.
Because, we all need softness and understanding. So as you travel through your day, be soft in all the simple ways. You never know whose day you’ll make.
