There’s a solid conception within society,
On karma,
The idea that what you do,
Makes it way back to you
Even if you don’t want it to
This idea tends to inspire more kindness overall,
We don’t want bad things coming back to us
But what if this didn’t exist?
What if the actions we took had no repercussions on ourselves?
Would we still choose kindness
After living my entire life in a community of vibrantly different people,
I have no doubt that kindness would still exist
Kindness exists even when no one is looking,
When you anonymously pay for someone’s coffee,
Or help a struggling animal
We are all good people inside
Perpetuating that however,
Has seemingly become more and more difficult
Why is it harder to choose the right path?
It’s because the other ones are so tempting to follow,
Abandon kindness for self gain,
That’s not how it works
In this society,
We foster love and connection
And in the days leading up to pink shirt day,
I urge you to choose kindness.
