How is it so easy for you to be kind to people? he
asked... milk and honey dripped from my lips and I answered, "cause
people have not been kind to me." Rupi Kaur

My path in life has been t a n g l e d from my beginnings-
I met DEATH at an early age and it seems he has followed me,
and as a quiet and shy child I soon knew all about bullies . . .
But instead of breaking me- it made me stronger!
I have a STRENGTH within that is unfathomable ~
At times, I have fallen into the pit of life and clawed my way out,
have been put down, abused, belittled, cast out, and forgotten.
But kindness has always d r i p p e d from my lips, cause kindness is the key.
