"To be kind is to respond with sensitivity and human warmth to the hopes and needs of others. Even the briefest touch of kindness can lighten a heavy heart. Kindness can change the lives of people"

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love. — LAO-TZU

Kind words do not cost much. They never blister the tongue or lips. They make other people good-natured. They also produce their own image on men's souls, and a beautiful image it is.

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.

Kindness is the excuse that social justice warriors use when they want to exercise control over what other people think and say.

Kindness is an inner desire that makes us want to do good things even if we do not get anything in return. It is the joy of our life to do them. When we do good things from this inner desire, there is kindness in everything we think, say, want, and do.

TO ALL MANKIND

Speak kind words
to mankind
and the unkind
will attack you.

Speak common sense
using any of your senses,
and you will be attacked by
the senseless.

Speak truth,
and you will be attacked by
the untruthful.

Speak about absolutely nothing,
and absolutely nothing
will speak back,
but then nothing at all
will ever change.

Kind words do not cost much. Yet they accomplish much

"Kind mind" is parental mind. Just as parents care for their children, you should bear in mind the three treasures. Even poor or suffering people raise their children with deep love. Their hearts cannot be understood by others. This can be known only when you become a father or a mother. They do not care whether they themselves are poor or rich; their only concern is that their children will grow up. They pay no attention to whether they themselves are cold or hot but cover their children to protect them from the cold or shield them from the hot sun. This is extreme kindness. Only those who have aroused this mind can know it, and only those who practice this mind can understand it. Therefore, you should look after water and grain with compassionate care, as though tending your own children.

Imagine what our real neighbors would be like if each of us offered, as a matter of course, just one kind word to another person. There have been so many stories about the lack of courtesy, the impatience of today's world, road rage and even restaurant rage. Sometimes, all it takes is one kind word to nourish another person. Think of the ripple effect that can be created when we nourish someone. One kind empathetic word has a wonderful way of turning into many.

Is it true? Is it kind? Does it need to be said?

Being polite is withholding feedback to make someone feel good today. Being kind is being candid about how they can get better tomorrow
