Today’s Horoscope

All Signs:
The stars want you to know that often times being kind brings no reward.  Many times our kindness and understanding is repaid by scorn, or by people taking advantage of it.  Worse yet, sometimes it is met with complete apathy, and the other person doesn’t even recognize it or appreciate it in the least.
It hurts.  It hurts in a way that makes you question who you are and why you are even trying.  It makes you feel foolish sometimes, other times it makes you feel used and inconsequential.  There is nothing worse than when you offer someone the world and they shrug it off like it doesn’t even matter.
Most people in the world don’t or can’t appreciate the things they have.  That is not your shortcoming, it is theirs, and all too often the kind people get trampled down and marginalized to the point where cynicism takes hold and the kindness seeps away.
The stars see that unless you are born a psychopath, that all people start out kind.  Then the world beats it out of them.  Every betrayal takes its toll, every casual dismissal chips away at the part of us that cares about others.  All the horrors that are visited upon us tear a little piece of us off, to fly away in the wind into the darkness, lost forever.
And one day even the best of us stop being kind.  We get selfish, closed off, anything to protect ourselves from the crushing, glacial weight of all the indifference and selfishness of the people that nonchalantly threw away everything we offered.
The stars want you to know that it is not your fault for being kind.  You are not to blame.  Your kindness is one of the most wonderful and amazing things that human beings are capable of.  To be kind, over and over, unflinchingly, when you know that there is a very good chance that your kindness will only bring you pain, is close to whatever Godliness is supposed to be.  
The stars see your kindness.
The stars know how wonderful you are.
The stars understand that you possess a knowledge greater than all the evil and misery and indifference of the universe can ever amass.
The world needs you, now more than ever, so never stop being kind.  
The stars realize that kindness may be the only thing that saves our wretched souls, that someday pulls us up out of the dark and gives all of us a chance to be as glorious as we are  supposed to be.  

The stars implore you, for the sake of all of us, never stop being kind.
