Today’s Just Be thought
This one is on lifting up others. It can take place anywhere, but in our modern world, the opportunity to do so is easier than ever.
For instance, I’ll find a random post in the group where we pretend to be ants. It doesn’t need to be a heavily commented one. I usually let my inner eye pick it out.
Then, I’ll post a positive reply. Sometimes I’ll create a pic or find one online to accompany the reply.
Always, it’s to lift the posters’ spirits. Or rather, “LIFT+” in this case.
I do the same with other people on social media like those I know directly. Sometimes I do offer feedback the other doesn’t like, but it’s done in a way that still lifts them up. But not in an insulting complement kind of way (“I like how your lovely hat distracts from the shape of your nose”).
Looking for these moments is important. You never know when that person needs to be lifted up.
Here’s the quote:
“Sometimes all we need to soothe our soul and ease our burdens is the loving hand of a friend gently touching our heart and lifting us towards love”
