Daily Wisdom – Motivational Podcast – Day 819 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond
There are people in our world who believe they should only be kind, or make friends with others who are extremely bright, talented, scholars, or people who are of just extreme importance.
It is good to learn and it is great to continuously grow in knowledge and have a broad sense of understanding of what the world is all about. In a profession, in areas of culture, and in every other aspect of life, this is great. However, the pursuit of such intelligence puts you in an introverted activity. That’s all it is.
It keeps you away from everybody else. Why become a hermit confined only to an elite circle of scholars; only to surround yourself with extremely intelligent people and only give them the opportunity to be around?
You should receive every person with a friendly face, even ones that can bring you absolutely no benefit. That person actually has a lot to offer. You should speak to people congenially with sweet and pleasing words. When you help others, you should do so with a pleasant demeanor. One who gives with his “face in the ground”, even if he gives all the gifts in the world, is considered as if he has not given anything at all.
Kindness is a virtue of utmost beauty; there’s nothing like it. It’s great to be wise, and certainly to become a scholar in whatever discipline, but to be kind is above and beyond any other emotive, concept, or action that you can apply to your life. Being kind means accepting everybody.
A friendly face means showing everyone the honor and the respect that they deserve, even though you may not think so, or actually they may not even deserve it. You should be above and beyond this. You should show them at all time a friendly face. It’ll make you better. It’ll make the place where you are so much better. It will make this world an exceptional place.
That is what the Creator did when he built the worlds. He did it out of kindness, and this is the gift he gave us. Use it wisely.
