The example you gave is a good one as I often encounter homeless people when I'm in the city and occasionally buy some food or give them change. But in doing so I don't really feel a movement in my heart after doing so, and when I ask myself why I did it, I usually just say "it's the right thing to do, what are you gonna do with the money". While I may not be polarising, and it does feel a little forced at times, isn't it still a good thing to do?
Yes. It is the right thing to do. And while that single act of kindness may feel a little forced, and not necessarily accomplish very much, remember the Law of Responsibility. Remember the Law of Confusion. We may not get feedback here and now for the tiny acts of "forced" kindness, but maybe, just maybe, there is a time and place where, in a Life Review, these small things become part of a larger tapestry, a great Canvas Painting of Who You Really Are.
Would it be such a failure to be known as: The Person Who Gave Always, Even When It Made No Sense?
You never know what word, thought or deed is written permanently into the Hierophant of Who You Are. We move through the Veil of 3D Earth with the dimmest of candles.
I vote we try, nonetheless.
