Speak the truth with kindness
Ahhhhhh, the morning was soft and peaceful with a gentle breeze and calm ocean. The world felt quiet, like it was still waking up. But once the flock flew in, that peaceful hush turned into a lively chatter with joyful voices greeting the day.
The sun rose from behind a thin cloud, sending out warm rays of golden light that wrapped around us like a hug. The flock danced around the sun as if celebrating another beautiful sunrise gifted to us by Mother Nature.
On my walk back across the boardwalk, I met someone new, a Catbird. My very first Catbird. She perched with a serious look, leaning in as if she had a very important message.
She said, “Catbirds are communicators. We teach the power of voice. Choose words that carry truth, but season them with kindness, for yourself and for others.”
Wishing you a beautiful day friends!
