What does this mean? Raising your cup of kindness is in essence a cup of good will, lifted in toast to all mankind. In doing so, we spread a bit of well-meaning goodness to all who circulate around us.

In days to come and as we approach the holidays of this year, may we all extend that cup of kindness, offering up this gesture of good will to our friends, neighbors, and the world around us. In the end we just might eliminate some of the hatred and ill will in this old world.

Peace on earth and good will toward all is attainable. By having love in our hearts and extending it to those around us, this caring message contains positive elements that will help make a better world.

Embracing a cup of kindness in my own life has been an integral part in transforming me into a better person. I recommend it to all of you. Reflecting upon it, having goodness in your heart might leave a warm feeling that will change your life.

After considering these thoughts, may your cup of kindness be filled with joy.
