The Gentle Side

Of Life

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 3 months ago 1 min read
Life has a gentle side

“There is nothing stronger

in the world

than gentleness.”

GENTLENESS

can serve as a powerful ‘antidote’

in the chaotic world we live in.

We are very often surrounded

with the hardness of society

and

find a gentle ‘hand’ comforting.

This quality of gentleness

is advocated as a core principle

in therapeutic practices and activities.

Life has a gentle side.

Of course,

this gentleness

is not just towards others

but

we do need to be

gentle with ourselves too sometimes.

Life has a gentle side.

Empathy, cooperation and understanding

are all qualities which encompass gentleness,

and which we need more of

in the world we live in today.

Life has a gentle side.

This quality of gentleness

offers a pathway

towards progress, patience and peace.

Sometimes it takes courage

to show the gentler side of our nature.

Life has a gentle side.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
