Whenever you’re feeling down, going through a difficult time, or simply wanting some words of comfort, inspirational messages remind you there is a rainbow waiting to appear behind every dark cloud. They also assure you that you are not alone in your journey as others have been through the same struggles and challenges as you. This inspirational video message encourages you to open yourself up to compassion and to care, love, and give to those who are less fortunate. No matter how different each person’s life may seem, the fate of all are intertwined. This message reminds you to accept others and situations without judgment, be generous without expectation, and remember what matters most: the love in your heart and how you share it. The symbol for Compassion is based on the Adinkra symbol of West Africa for “Funtumfunafu Denkyemfunafu,” or “conjoined crocodile twins.” This is a symbol that represents two living beings joined together in a common fate. Because the bodies of the crocodiles are joined together, their existence is intertwined; their destinies are one. Hold the following inspiring message in your thoughts as you go about your daily living because through the power of positive thought, you can create positive realities in which you welcome in the abundance of the Universe. About Nikki Karis - Karis is an author, inspirational speaker, attorney, animal advocate, and creator of Finding Zeni, an inspirational company, which is home to several projects created by Karis, all of which are geared to motivating and empowering people of all walks of life to discover their authentic selves. Karis, whose given name is Nikki Marie Kavouklis, grew up in Tarpon Springs, a small town on the west coast of Florida. As a child, many people, including her parents and teachers, recognized that Karis possessed a special gift for connecting with people via the written and spoken word. Karis spent her youth with her nose buried in a book, studying or reading for pleasure, her foot on a soccer ball, or her mind focused on whatever creative endeavor she was involved with at the time. After high school, Karis went on to obtain her BA degree and later, her doctorate degree, both from the University of Florida. After graduating from law school, Karis returned to her hometown to practice law. Karis started her own law firm in 1999, which has grown into a successful practice with several locations in Florida. Finding Zeni's development resulted from Karis' desire to share her own life journey as well as her passion for helping and inspiring others. Shortly after her father passed away February of 2007, Karis began a journey of self-awakening during which much of what she had come to learn and understand about herself, life, and the world in general was turned completely upside down. The veil of illusion that had cloaked her perceptions for many years was finally brought down, allowing her to see herself, people, and situations for who and what they really are. The result is that Karis came out the other side of her journey a stronger, more inspired person who was finally living authentically, free from other people's wants, needs, and expectations of who she should be. During her journey, Karis gained enormous compassion for the human spirit as she actively sought to understand the struggles people from the many different walks of life endure. Her views about the world, people, and life in general were positively altered, allowing her to feel a deep well of love and compassion for the struggles of her fellow mankind. Today, Karis is giving back to others, devoting herself to her inspirational work, both with Finding Zeni and her law practice, Zen 4 Law, where she aims to reach all of humankind. Through her writings and videos, Karis inspires people who are feeling down, empowers them to live authentically, and shows others through stories of her own experiences what it takes to overcome life’s heartaches and hardships. Karis encourages everyone to remember that their thoughts do, in fact, create their realities. No matter the difficulties life can bring, Karis continually reinforces the importance of keeping a positive, optimistic mindset. Karis wants to wish you a joyous journey through life. She hopes that through her inspiring messages, affirmations, and videos, you will discover your authentic self.
