Way Below the Clouds

I went on the road this week. I flew, I drove, and I kept my mind and heart open. What follows is what I experienced and felt. This is what I wanted to share.

When I looked out the plane window, I saw clouds as far as my eyes could see. The sun's rays pierced through the clouds, making what I saw nothing short of breathtaking. Close your eyes for a moment right now and be still. Can you visualize what I saw? Can you see our Earth's majesty with your own eyes? I hope so. Appreciating Earth helps us care for it. And right now, Mother Earth is definitely in serious need of our kindness, attention, and care.

So today, which also happens to be National Daughters Day (and a special Happy Daughters Day to my own, Katherine and Christina), I want to focus my column on the power of kindness. I want to write about the kindness I experienced during my recent travels, and about how it reminded me of who we really are at our core.
