31 Days of Yoga Challenge (Day 12)

Today is the 12th day into my 31 days of yoga challenge everyone! It's moving right along and this challenge has truly opened up my eyes along the way. Today I am thankful for being a person who has good morals and is always fair to others. There have been tis in my life when I've stood up for people, when other people were treating them badly and things have turned back around on me somehow. That's okay though because if people don't stand up for what's right even if it may just be the smallest little thing, than what's the point in even having beliefs? What is the point in eve believing in anything if you're not going to speak out and stand up for others... and more importantly yourself? We should be remembered for the things we do. I am thankful for my courage and good moral personality that I have been given. My mother says a I get that from y grandmother and that gives me a little bit of security; makes me feel like not only her memories, but a little piece of her is always apart of me.
The things e do are the most important things of all. Not what we even say or what we look like. Our actions have to go along with our words in order to have a chain reaction, and the things we do outlast our mortality. And even in certain circumstances, if I finish last in that very moment I know for a fact that I won't in the future because the "good" will always be one step ahead either way. People who are sincere don't do kind deeds expecting kindness in return, people do kind deeds because it's who they are, and because they understand the powerful difference a gentle hand makes in this cruel world. So choose to stand up for who needs it and for what's right. Choose to be courageous for yourself and most importantly, choose to be kind.
