Be a living transformer of Love - Step 10
Cultivate gentleness
There is much harshness in the world. Cultivating gentleness can bring souls of light and little children back to God. What is gentleness? Gentleness is a caring and giving attitude that does not feel offended by anything or anyone. Gentleness is the opposite of vulnerability, inflexibility and resistance. Inflexibility and resistance to change at work, in relationships, and on a global level will make you vulnerable. Vulnerability can break. But gentleness is strength - ultimate strength. Gentleness is a loving way of dealing with a situation, not demeaning the other person, but showing them that you have their best interests at heart.
