That Kindness

We Appreciate It

Always Be Kind

“Everyone you meet

is fighting a battle

you know nothing about.

Be Kind.

Always”

We know the old saying:

“treat others as you would like to be treated”,

I think that the two go together.

Every one of us

is going through something

the other knows nothing about,

and this is why

we should be Kind

to everyone we meet.

Usually,

when we smile at someone,

even a stranger,

they smile back,

but even if they don’t,

still smile at them.

We don’t know ‘why’

he or she didn’t smile back.

It could be as simple

as just coming from the dentist,

or it could be as serious as

losing a loved one in death.

And,

because ‘we just don’t know’,

we should “Always” be Kind.

We Appreciate that Kindness ourselves,

when it is shown towards us.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
