I'd obviously recommend checking out The Book of Lenity.
Lenity by definition is gentle or kindness - to be lenient. It is an anchor for me during interactions with others.
It is a reminder that whilst I must have empathy & be considerate of my actions, I must just as importantly insist on the same in return.
I must maintain my own dignity as I define it & not let others dictate who I choose to be.
I am fallible & will make mistakes but I am also humble & wish to learn and grow.
That is the concept of Lenity.
It is how I choose to carry myself in life & is my gift to distribute to those who wish to receive it.
May it inspire those who’s burdens are heavy...
Lenity requires nothing from you except the willingness to change.
To be a Christian or a Buddhist for example you must act or behave in a certain way - be programmed into a behaviour.
Lenity is a mindset - a state of mind to change the world for the better.
