Kindness doesn’t mean ignoring people when they do things that are unkind, wrong, ignorant, racist or discriminatory.It doesn’t mean keeping quiet when you disagree with someone about a moral issue.But it does mean treating people with respect.

Kindness is a high moral standard.It is living a life that strives to always do what is right. It is understanding the impact our words and actions have on others (regardless of our intent).Kindness is a constant goal.

It is not something to be conquered.Instead it is a life’s work.It is apologizing when we fail and it is committing to do better.Kindness is understanding that we are all human and thus kindness is also forgiving others when they fail at being kind but also being clear that forgiveness comes with an expectation to do better next time.



Kindness isn’t always easy. Sometimes it can be messy. Sometimes it can be scary.

But it is always the right thing to do.

Gratitude turns what we have into enough and more” (Melody Beattie) or “If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you,it will be enough” (Meister Eckhart)
