After this weeks shock of the passing of Dr. Sophia Yin, we are left to wonder why. Someone who seemingly had so much.....fame, intelligence, the ability to help so many as she did. Why would she end it all? This TED talk is so relevant at this time, I cannot help but share it. It pounds home the fact that no matter what OUR perception of someone else is, you dont REALLY know what is in that persons heart. Dr. Yin obviously was in a great deal of pain....yet who knew? People who reach that point of desperation often feel so alone. And not good enough. Pretty enough. Smart enough. You fill in the blank. But I hope that you get what I did out of this....and that is, to go forward treating everyone with kindness. Give a kind word or a word of encouragement to anyone you pass during your day. Because you never know if they are standing on the ledge but are afraid to tell anyone. Please watch and share! Lets get this kindness message spread far and wide. Oh, and I also cant help repeating a quote by Maya Angelou, who was amazingly wise....You might forget what they said, but you will never forget the way they made you feel. Think that thought as you interact with others, and make a change in YOUR heart to be kind to everyone. Even if they havent been kind to you.
