The strength of kindness is a powerful force.
In but one sweet encounter, it can change a life’s course.
Cultivate kindness within your own heart.
Be kind to yourself, that’s where it all starts.
Until you value your self, you’re of no value to others.
Before we are loved, we must be our own lovers.
Love yourself first, weaknesses and all.
I’m not too short, and you’re not too tall.
Where I am weak, there are those who are strong.
My strengths can serve others, we are different, not wrong.
Give what you have, give of yourself,
And if you are tall, help me reach the top shelf.
A smile, a coffee, a hug or a grant.
You have something to give, so give kindness a chance.
An act of kindness builds strength on all sides.
Both, giver and receiver, grow at the same time.
Push kindness forward, however you can.
Use what you’re given, wherever you stand.
You are the future, and this is the truth,
The strength of kindness, abides within you.

Such a lovely piece 🙂
Thank you so much 🙂
Yes. True words. Kindness has changed the way i see the world.
There is a bliss in kindness that cannot be attained in selfish pursuits. It is the way in which someone with nothing can give everything and have it all.
Exactly. We dont need material richness to be kind. We only need love, compassion, sympathy for others. 🙂
