I am grateful for kind people because ...I experienced kind people today and ...I experienced unkind people today, namely myself, and I am ashamed. I want more than anything to have a well of kindness within me.
I hear you. I saw something recently about shame being from the Devil- and I think I know what they had in mind when they posted it... but I didn't agree. I can't count the number of times I've been ashamed of myself when I saw/heard someone else and saw myself in comparison. The feeling of shame can be a very good thing... if we don't get stuck there but correct the thing inside that we're ashamed of. :)
