Is it True? Is it Kind? Is it Necessary?

Reflections, Recipes & True stories.

Hey JoyRiders,

We hope you’ve had a great week! For our Kenyan fans Happy Belated Madaraka day!

Now let’s dive into this week’s newsletter…..

THIS WEEK’S REFLECTION

Woop! The first of many reflections. I had to take this one for the team cause Ben needs time to understand the concept, he’s the slow one in the group, haha!

Anyway, I have been mulling over the concept of kindness and what role it plays in our interactions as humans, and more so “always-online” humans. I reflected on this heavily this past weekend over the Fenty Drama ( if you are not caught up, Twitter is your bestie). As I was thinking on this, catching up on all the drama, I came across a quote on Pinterest that I later shared on Instagram - “The mouth should have three gatekeepers. Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary?”

We may not always agree with each other, we may not always share similar opinions, heck we may even be the “tell it like it is” kind of people and that’s ok, but the true test is in how we are able to speak to each other when we don’t agree, how we correct each other and how we voice our opinions.

Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary? - I hope these 3 can guide how we treat each other. Have a great week Joyriders, and remember to be kind!
Love,

Wanjiru
