Signaling Mindful Communication

Signaling that we’re mindful,
whether we’re speaking, writing, posting, 
or messaging, is simple. There’s no lying, denying, or blame.
There’s no harm done.
 We’re remembering that what we say and do, matters.
We’re not gossiping, just sharing what’s needed. 
And everything we say is kind. It’s simple, but maybe not easy. 
If it were, I feel like more of us would be mindful,
 whether we’re talking to friends or planning a campaign. It’s not easy, but it seems to me 
like a better standard of care, 
and a better Signal to the world, 
than the one we have now.
