Always stay Humble and Kind

Humble and Kind

There are shelves full of self-help books with insights that “guarantee” our success in business, health or self-discovery. But one of the most profound, yet simple guides for life was captured in a song by the remarkable writer, Lori McKenna.

As you watch this PSA, we hope you sense that by being kind our most important life goals will be achieved. “I know you got mountains to climb, but always stay humble and kind...”

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

Lyrics:

You know there's a light that glows by the front door
Don't forget the keys under the mat
Childhood stars shine, always stay humble and kind

Don't expect a free ride from no one
Don't hold a grudge or a chip and here's why
Bitterness keeps you from flyin'
Always stay humble and kind

Hold the door say please say thank you
Don't steal, don't cheat, and don't lie
I know you got mountains to climb but
Always stay humble and kind

When the dreams you're dreamin' come to you
When the work you put in is realized
Let yourself feel the pride but
Always stay humble and kind

Kindness. Pass It On!

Pass It On®

I love seeing different children coming together. I have a 4 year old son with autism and his mom and I are separated but trying to get it back together and stay united. I love him so much. He goes to a special school with councilors and it hard work and expensive but I would give my last dime to let him have a chance to fit in with society. He's so beautiful and has a huge heart. He loves so much. I love what you are doing!! Please keep going.

There are so many small acts of everyday-kindness that we take for granted, barely acknowledging with a casual, "Thanks." Focus on all acts of good--both great and small--and you will see the world in a much brighter light.
