Even when we know people’s names, why do we go for days without using them? By using someone’s name, you help them feel seen and acknowledged — and that’s an act of kindness. According to kindness.org’s research in collaboration with the University of Oxford, doing a kind act increases happiness, well-being, trust and compassion. And it can have the same powerful effect on those who receive the act. Try it, and put a smile on both your faces. |

Happy Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. “Forgiveness is not an occasional act, it is a constant attitude,” the civil rights leader once said.
Forgiveness is not for the other person -- it is a gift for yourself, advises psychologist Elizabeth Lombardo. When you’re in a state of resentment, hate and anger, you can’t live your best life. She recommends telling yourself, “I can’t change what happened, I can’t change the past. But I can change the present and the future, and I choose to do that.”
Follow the link to see why you don’t need to wait for the other person to act in order to forgive and why forgiveness comes with learning. |
