Stories of Kindness from Around the World

The Gift of Kindness


--by mariefrancealexa, posted Dec 25, 2015
I think that the greatest compliment I could give or receive is to tell or be told by the other person that I am a kind. It is my intention as much as possible show kindness to people. 

I once read a book by Sylvia Borstein which began and ended with: "Since life is so difficult, how can we be anything but kind?" The truth of this statement really touched me and although I often fail I try to be as kind as possible to all whose paths I cross each day. I know how much a beautiful smile can make my day, and hope I can give that gift to others.

May anyone who reads this be happy and filled with peace and I sent you all a big smile of appreciation.
