One of the great and important things we can realize for ourselves — and help our kids to realize — is the impact we each have on others. Depression and anxiety is at an all-time high … people feel isolated and alone … and we KNOW that a kind word or action from someone can literally change someone else’s life for the better. We each have the responsibility to treat everyone in our sphere of influence with kindness and respect — and teaching that responsibility to our children not only empowers them to positively impact the lives of those around them, but also increases their own capacity for love.
