Being Kind
Here are a few quotes I found at thinkexist.com about kindness that tell it all:
“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.” Leo F. Buscaglia quotes (American guru, tireless advocate of the power of love, 1924-1998)
“You can gain more friends by being yourself than you can by putting up a front. You can gain more friends by building people up than you can by tearing them down. And you can gain more friends by taking a few minutes from each day to do something kind for someone, whether it be a friend or a complete stranger. What a difference one person can make!” Sasha Azevedo quotes (American Actress, Athlete and Model)
“What wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness?” Jean-Jacques Rousseau quotes (French philosopher and writer whose novels inspired the leaders of the French Revolution, 1712-1778)
“Kindness is forgetting yourself for awhile, being aware of your surroundings and being willing to give a helping hand, or gesture, or even a smile to someone who may need it.” (by me, Ineta McParland)
Little acts of kindness make a huge difference. It makes someone’s day. It does not need to be big. Writing somebody a comment card for a great service you received or praising that person, smile at somebody who is having a bad day, rescuing injured and left alone bird or animal and bring to the sanctuary. It does not take much – but it makes a better day for all involved.
Can you imagine how world would look like if everybody would forget about themselves for awhile and take time to be kind to someone else?
