You deserve to receive kindness, as well as to give kindness.
Kindness is a blessing in our lives whether we are giving it or receiving it. Since we all do better when we all do better the big picture of sharing kindness is obviously beneficial. The small day to day kindnesses are a blessing too though. We are built with empathy, for kindness. When we are kind to others we are emotionally rewarded, and when we receive kindness the rewards are emotional and practical too!
