For some people, kindness is simply second nature and we wear a smile on our faces naturally.  For others, it takes effort to treat people with kindness.

Enemies of kindness:

  • Depersonalization
  • Stress
  • A hostile world

Unkind people may have reputations for being harsh in spirit and action, intolerant of others, merciless, and thoughtless.  They will care little about the effect of their actions on others, and they may be actively cruel toward people and animals.

“Kindness is the language the deaf can hear and the blind can see.” -Mark Twain
