“366 Days of Kindness” intro …
The critical shift in every human being’s life comes when their desire to harmonize with the Universe becomes greater than their fear of the changes that such a re-alignment requires. This shift becomes completely successful the instant one Believes that he/she is willing to Live Care-fully — and then Begins to courageously walk that Talk.
If one thing has become clear to me over the years, it is that mere “friendliness”, politeness or “being nice” is not enough to engender true Inner Peace. Rather, in order to bring a deep-seated, lasting sense of Contentment, one’s actions must be challenging – both in their sincerity and in their selflessness.
And such a transformation is what this Blog is all about; documenting what I experience while intending to fulfill the 366 selfless tasks provided in (i)am’s “Selfless Service Calendar” (available for download or viewing from the “Celestial Calendars” category of this site’s “Writings” page — http://www.inspiringthealtruisticmoment.com/index.php?page=writings).
Over the last five+ years, I have already experienced the effectiveness of actions similar if not identical to each of these 366, and yet I have also experienced the Truth that the more often selflessness is courageously practiced, the more potent its powers become. As such, I am excited to begin this Journey, and have faith that each of you will benefit by traveling along with me.
And if you wish to join me on this Quest for True Self*, simply download the calendar and follow along, and feel free to email me while you do so. While none of the 366 daily opportunities will perfectly engage your own unique Gifts of Self, each of them, if courageously engaged, will awaken in you what you allReady Know: that you are here to Serve, that you can do so powerfully, and that it matters not how closely you emulate your own “perfect path” – as long as you continue to walk its general direction by regularly being courageously Kind. Engage the action recommended only for that day, or, if a particular action “catches your fancy”, make it a part of your new everyday Life …
Wishing you all Peace & Joy on your own Journeys back to True Self,

*If you do choose to participate, please note that this Journey is not a “process”. You are not attempting to “get better” or stimulate yourself to “grow” as a person. To re-Awaken your True Self, you must choose to be completely true to that Self’s selfless inclinations for one moment. For this to take place, the moment must be an active one – incorporating the harmonization of positive thoughts, kind intentions and selfless action. Indeed, to experience The Way of Inner Peace, all that is required is one moment of one action that is selflessly Caring. The only question then becomes whether or not you will repeat that choice in your life’s subsequent moments … One thing is seemingly certain – for Inner Peace to be attained and your True Self to be “woken up”, merely reading this calendar’s entries will not be sufficient. Though such a perusal would prove to be inspirational, only the courageous practicing of these acts of Service will revolutionize your Life.
