What is kindness?

Kindness is not just being nice or staying calm in an argument.

Kindness is listening with the intent to understand someone else’ point of view without your thoughts, ideas and feelings getting in the way.

Kindness is asking questions when you do not understand, believe or agree with the other person.

It is to validate the truth claims of the other person by acknowledging it if you agree.

Have you experienced kindness before? Or been kind to someone? How does it feel?

Isn’t it an ethereal experience? It is wonderful, how it passes on from one to the next, with a ripple effect on the world.

Small acts of affection, care, warmth, generosity and concern can shower you with inexplicable happiness and satisfaction.
