The Music Video That Circled The World
http://www.karmatube.org/videos.php?id=4472
The 21-Day Kindness Challenge launched on September 11th. 98 countries. 6000 people. And a collective tidal wave of good that inspired many — including young rapper-activist “Nimo” Patel at the Gandhi Ashram in India. Nimo wasted no time channeling that inspiration into an infectious music video. “Being Kind” was created on super short notice by an intercontinental crew of volunteers working out of their living rooms. It features footage from all over the world and heart-melting appearances by the children Nimo works with in the slums. Watch, listen, and prepare to smile big at this lyrical reminder that kindness really is “all we can leave behind.” – See more at:

About The Persecution of Mildred Dunlap
The year 1895 was filled with memorable historical events: the Dreyfus Affair divided France; Booker T. Washington gave his Atlanta address; Richard Olney, United States Secretary of State, expanded the effects of the Monroe Doctrine in settling a boundary dispute between the United Kingdom and Venezuela; and Oscar Wilde was tried and convicted for "gross indecency" under Britian's recently passed law that made sex between males a criminal offense. When the news of Wilde's conviction went out over telegraphs worldwide, it threw a small Nevada town into chaos. This is the story of what happened when the lives of its citizens were impacted by the news of Oscar Wildes' imprisonment. It is chronicle of hatred and prejudice with all its unintended and devastating consequences, and how love and friendship bring strength and healing.
Paulette Mahurin, the author, is a Nurse Practitioner who lives in Ojai, California with her husband Terry and their two dogs--- Max and Bella. She practices women's health in a rural clinic and writes in her spare time.

Terrifically inspirational. 🙂
Yes, very! 🙂
I sometimes wonder if I am a kind person.
There were times when I was just that – might have just lost sight of what’s really important.
Well, something I have to work on I think. Thanks for the vid P – it was quite beautiful – made me think…
Good morning, G. If I might be so bold, you’re coming here to comment to share is a kindness toward me. The interchanges with your cyber friends, what you do for your boys, the gifts you make, tending to your pond to save the fish, having a work ethic that can only help others, and so much more. Really, it’s not big huge things and we’re all human struggling with our human emotions and reactions. But the proof of the pudding is in the act. Being who we are, authentically is who we are. The question is how do we treat others? You’re my friend Ghia and I’m grateful for our connection. Love, Paulette
Kind words P. I thank you for them.
it was a good day – the day we connected 🙂
🙂
A wonderful, profound, universal message that brings hope! Kindness is about our participation within a global community. Only then can we truly find peace within our souls. I want to personally thank you for bringing kindness in every one of your posts and comments! You spread hope, the very essence of the human connection. Hugs!!!
Thank you so much for your beautiful words. Hugs!!!! 🙂
Hugs and more hugs coming back….

Paulette, This is a wonderful song. I sat and listened with my eyes closed to better absorb the words, and it so so moving. Thank you for sharing it. — Take care, Bill
So happy to share anything with you, my friend Bill. We’re holding cyber hands, aren’t we? Have a good fun smiling weekend. 🙂

An amazing video with an even more amazing message. And, I loved the little hearts!
So happy to share with you, Sage, who brings to much joy to this world. You’re a very special furry friend. wag wag 🙂
Wonderful post. Wehn my father died, I heard over and over….your father was so kind, my dog loved him because he was always so kind to her, Robert was a kind gentleman…..what a wonderful legacy – my father was kind!
That’s beautiful, to have had a father like that. But, from my feel of you, it’s no surprise. You’re a very special woman and your heart shines through your posts. Hope you have a really smiling weekend. 🙂
Thank you Paulette. I miss him everyday. You would have, like everyone else, loved him. He could be a bit of an imp sometimes! I hope your weekend is full of smiles and comfort and love.
🙂
It isn’t difficult to see how passionate this young man is. Wonderful video. Thanks for sharing, Paulette.
So true, to see his passion. What a breath of fresh air for all he’s doing to help where there’s really a need. Happy weekend to you, Tess. 🙂
Same to you, Paulette. 🙂

This is a fantastic video. What a wonderful legacy for this young man to leave the world. 🙂
Yes it is. Very uplifting and inspirational human being. 🙂
I hope to leave some behind. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we all did?
It’d be terrific if we all did. And, as for you it looks to me you’ve already generated a ton of kindness ripples that will keep on flowing out for a long time to come. 🙂
I hope so Paulette. 🙂 Thank you.
Trust me, my friend, trust me. You’ve made it into my heart and there were some of your posts that changed my attitude after reading them. Who knows the impact that ended up having.

Moving the world closer, one act of kindness at a time. It is Paulette’s way to let the video speak for itself. I applaud her for moving the message forward and so it goes…
So kind of you to pass this along, rippling acts of kindness right along. 🙂
Well, you’re my bud, now aren’t you? Can’t have you standing in the wind ~ got to be on your six! Grin.
You betcha! 😉
Yes, kindness and I’ll add mercy to this is what the world needs, Oh yes, compassion, too. A lovely song. Very nice.
Absolutely. So very true that the world needs them all. Thank you!
Hi!
Thank you so much for sharing this…love watching these types of videos…it makes me want to cry…but good tears though 🙂
I feel the same. It really touches the heart and sure makes me want to pay it forward. 🙂
As it SHOULD be.
Yes! 🙂
Love, love love it Paulette. The lyric is excellent. I might just share it credit to you. Thank you and let’s stay kind always, Perpetua.
Right on with staying kind! I’m in! No need to give credit to me just feel free to share and spread the kindness. Not mine to own. Big hug! the other p
Wonderful and lovely video, Paulette . Thank you for sharing! Kindness and compassion go a long way indeed. , Francina xx.
My pleasure. All the sweeter to share and I love what you wrote about kindness and compassion going a long way. Right on, my friend! 🙂
Hopefully yes!! And in your case certainly!
I’m with you on hoping for this, all the way. And, right back at you, Cindy. You’re a light in this world, a beautiful gift. xoxo
I always believed that kindness brings kindness back. I think everyone should try if possible to treat each others as we ourselfs would like to be treated in return: with kindness and respect.
Love what you wrote, Claudia. Thank you so much. 🙂
Pay it forward … that’s a the way to go. thanks for sharing.
Right on! That’s the best, to pay it forward. Love imagining all those ripples heading around the world.
BTW: you’ve an amazingly beautiful site and your photography is some of the best I’ve seen. The layout at your cyber place is really magnificent with that black backdrop. I shan’t forget it for a long time.
Happy Holidays. 🙂
Oh yes… it is infectious like everything else. more reason to be mindful of our thoughts, words and actions.
Thank you ♥… love your inspiring appreciation.
Yes to being mindful about what one thinks, says, and does. So true. How could there ever be peace, kindness, tolerance without these? Grateful our paths have crossed in this terrific cyber community. 🙂
Wow this is the first I have heard of this. What an awesome undertaking. I pray it reaps a loving harvest.
Thanks for posting this

Thank you for the reminder-kindness can be so overlooked-and it often comes in the small acts of the everyday-have a great Friday!
So true, what you just said. Thank you back. Wishing you a great Friday and weekend. 🙂
Paulette, This is making the rounds, and rounds, and rounds, and that is a good thing. This is a wonderful video, and if opens even a single set of eyes then it has served a wonderful purpose. Please take care, and be safe, Bill
Hey Bill, Yes, it’s a good thing. Guess there’s never enough reminders about being kind. Hope it opens a lot of eyes, and hearts. Have a good weekend, my friend.
If only… Why can’t we all just live peaceably and leave each other with love? I know the answer, but sometimes, I just have to ask.
Hi Barbara, It’s a very important question. And, you’re fortunate you know the answer. Not everyone is so blessed. Have a nice weekend. 🙂
Thanks, you too. Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, Barbara. 🙂
