"Nothing is so strong as gentleness, and nothing is so gentle as real strength." — Bishop Francis de Sales
I found this quote this morning on the app I use to help me focus when I write. I can't help but think about what is happening around the world.
Yet, I don't know what to say or write. All my thoughts seem so naive right now. Just thinking about gentleness feels childish.
Yet, there are stories of incredible gentleness everywhere, even in the most dreadful situations.
But it's here, around me, that I can witness the mighty strength of gentleness every day.
The incredible thing is that a small act of gentleness not only shows our strength but also infuses strength into others.
Be gentle.
Be kind.
Be strong.
