Something I wish more people understood is that optimism and kindness are a choice.
For some people that choice comes more naturally than others. In some situations that choice is easier to make. But even if you're naturally inclined to be kind and optimistic, there will be times when it's a real struggle to not just wallow in the misery, or to be a petty ass gremlin to someone. When it takes real effort to not just take the easy option, because you know it will not help, or will even make stuff worse in the long run.
On the flip side for those who it doesn't come naturally, who really need to work on it, they still can and often do choose both kindness and optimism. Because no matter the difficulty level, it improves your overall quality of life and that of those around you.
Also, choosing kindness is not faking things. If you do kind things you are a kind person, whether you have to actively chose it or not. There is no difference to those you were kind to whether or not you had to think about the action, or if it just happened automatically. You still treated them kindly, and that is what they'll remember. It will mean more than you might think.
The good news is that it's a muscle you can train. The more you forge those pathways in your brain, the easier they are to walk. Where one day you may find that while you may never be a fully natural optimistic kind person, you can pretty well imitate one, and that's all that matters.
Kindness and optimism are a choice and you always get to choose it.

I love when I see a post that starts with "I'm atheist but" and then it proceeds to be the most beautiful sentence/paragraph I've ever read, articulating my faith and adoration for Christ in a way that is so meaningful.
Like my friend you may not believe in God but you've just reminded me why I do.

let us pray for all those who are standing up for justice and peace. those who, regardless of danger to themselves, till the earth in the trail of destruction left by the mighty, and plant the seeds of a better future there. let us pray that God may bless their efforts and protect them and keep them.
let us pray for those who feel afraid and powerless to act. those who fear the cost of standing up in solidarity with the oppressed, or of standing up for themselves. let us pray that God may bolster them and guide them to right action.
may God grant us all the strength to bear one another's burdens, the wisdom to know where our gifts are most needed, and the courage to put our hands to the plow and not look back.
