Every day, some act of kindness comes my way, even if it's just someone opening the door. It happens every day if you keep an eye out for it. Keeping an eye out, that's the key.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If you have an impulse to kindness, act on it.
It really shocks me when I encounter people who think kindness doesn't matter. Because I think it's pretty much the only thing that matters.
When kindness has left people, even for a few moments, we become afraid of them as if their reason had left them. When it has left a place where we have always found it, it is like shipwreck; we drop from security into something malevolent and bottomless.
I always hold doors open, I always try to be nice.
When you carry out acts of kindness you get a wonderful feeling inside. It is as though something inside your body responds and says, yes, this is how I ought to feel.
Kindness is something that I feel is leaving us a little bit - people are getting more self-involved.
Remember there's no such thing as a small act of kindness. Every act creates a ripple with no logical end.
You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late.
Sometimes people don't trust the force of kindness. They think love or compassion or kindness will make you weak and kind of stupid and people will take advantage of you; you won't stand up for other people.
Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward, safe in the knowledge that one day someone might do the same for you.
