Kindness

Your book has significantly changed my view of the kindness in our society. Kindness is like love, it blooms in some and lingers in others. I grew up in New Ulm, Minnesota—a small town with a deep passion and obsession for their German heritage with a population of around 13,000. Although with this town, it has a lack of diversity. The percentage of Caucasians is around 95%, which leaves the remaining 5% to non-Caucasians; I am Chinese and part of that 5% of non-Caucasians. Being different here

Every time I think of Kindness this quote by Mark Twain comes to mind; “Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.” Kindness is not about just taking care of yourself, as Tayyab Rashid & Afroze Anjum (2005), VIA Character Strengths. Define kindness we learned that: “Kindness consists of doing favors and good deeds for others without the expectation of personal gain. This strength requires

Kindness is the act of doing something nice towards others by showing concern and generosity. Everyday we experience an act of kindness from our friends, family, or strangers and without someone acting kind to us then they start to act hostile to us. I was taught by my parents to always show kindness to everyone around me no matter what kind of person they are; therefore, I started to act kind everyday by showing kindness to my friends and family. While I acted kind to others I was able to receive

thought kindness was, what would they say? Would they give a generic answer? Would they say they didn’t know? Many would say that is being nice to others. But is that REALLY what kindness is? Is kindness for people to show appreciation for others? Is it a way to show that you love someone? Not recently. Recently it has become a mask, a way to gain attention, and a way to make people think you are better than them. Kindness is a mask people use to hide their true identity. People use kindness as an

bought and recovered, then finally sold to people who knew him as Black Beauty, and determined to never sell him. The theme of kindness runs through the entire book. Kindness is when someone thinks about the feelings of everyone else (not discriminating between looks, actions, or social status), and makes a conscious, continuous, and wholehearted effort to treat them well. Kindness is when people treat everyone with respect. In Black Beauty, the creatures who are shown as ‘good ones’ are kind to cruel

Why Kindness? Much of our time we spend on things that are irrelevant to our life or those which are not necessary, their negative impact creates space for sadness. We start judging our actions, and those actions are almost every time affects our happiness. The depressed mind finds difficulties to communicate with others; it changes our family lives and social identity. Our actions not only affect us but also affect our loved ones; through kindness, we can forgive us; we can bless us with love

Kaitlin D’Souza – From Catty to Kind I believe in kindness, towards others like and unlike ourselves. Kindness can be as simple as a homework reminder text, or as big as buying concert tickets to cheer someone up. Our kindness has the potential to inspire others to change for the better. When I was younger, I could afford to be catty because I was the one that everyone wanted to sit next to. I don’t know why but everything always came easy to me; school, conversation, and friendship. I effortlessly

Kindness I believe in the power of kindness. Have you ever thought that being kind could change at least one person's outlook on the day? Being kind is a simple gesture that could make a huge difference in someone’s life. Kindness is something I believe in because you never know how life is for someone behind closed doors, you don’t know someone’s emotional state, and just being an all-around kind person will make you feel better about yourself.

of January 9-13, Mrs. Thompson’s Language Arts classes conducted a Kindness Experiment. Students were asked to complete kind gestures and encourage recipients to pay them forward. This task created a kindness chain that is still going on today. Students and teachers are passing the torch of kindness and doing amazing things. This proves that kindness is contagious! “Your wealth or status doesn’t make you. Your kindness and character do.” -Yenkat Desireddy. Although you might think you need

In America, acts of kindness are becoming more rare. In my opinion, kindness is an act of generosity or compassion toward another person. Random acts of kindness are my favorite expressions of kindness because they are unexpected acts of generosity, usually toward a complete stranger. This could be anything from paying for someone’s morning coffee to helping someone pick up something they dropped. Seeing the smile on their face is the most rewarding part, along with the feeling of personal satisfaction
