Love and Kindness

A large boulder in the middle of a stream seems unmoved by the water that surrounds it. But, over time, the current can wear down the rock and eventually move it along to another location. The stream overcomes not so much by strength of force but by consistency. Kindness works much the same way as the stream. By constantly being kind, our love will flow over and around the hard places of life, but not without affecting it. And, little by little, the boulders of our lives will be moved by love and kindness.
