Kindness isn’t an action. It’s a characteristic. It is predisposed in our nature. It’s who we are when we allow our essence to transcend to action. “The doing” without our own regard for the sake of others and exercise humility can label us as a “kind person”. Kind people are often equated with being “givers”. Giving of your time, energy, headspace is still giving. Several years ago there was a movement called “Random Acts of Kindness” where an individual would do a good deed for someone they did not know, a stranger. This movement opened up a trend all over because everyone wanted to be “the good guy” the person who does good things for people for no reason at all. The trouble with this was, that many people had motives. They wanted that recognition. Those of them who actually embraced the idea of kindness to strangers remained and continued or continues to pay it forward without “said recognition”.
Being kind will cost you nothing financially but the pay off is far more rewarding. Being kind EVEN when others aren’t could get you sainthood....LOL. Regardless of who, what, when or how; we should practice it. Especially those of us who aren’t as inclined to being kind. This world needs kindness and you will receive what you put out into universe.
