Virtue of the month: Kindness

“Kindness is caring that springs from compassion. We have genuine concern for the welfare of others. We are warm, friendly and ready to help. We listen for the needs beneath the words. We give tender attention in simple ways that bring others happiness… We are good stewards of the earth and all living things. We remember to be kind of ourselves”. Linda Kavelin Popov

Virtue of the Month: Zeal!

“Zeal is passion for a purpose we deeply value. We follow a vision of what is possible with enthusiasm and ardor. When we are zealous, we give our all… Zeal is being for something, not against anything. Zeal is the fire in our belly. It illumines even the smallest task with joy.”

“The Practice of Zeal: I have a deep sense of purpose. I am passionate about what I value. I persevere in my enthusiasm. I am considerate of the perspective of others. I work with joyous energy.” Linda Kavelin-Popov.

Affirmation: I am thankful for the gift of Zeal. It ignites my idealism.
