Kindness is a powerful thing. It can change someone’s life, and it can change the world. Kindness is what drives us to be better humans, and it’s what makes the world a better place.
The power of kindness is that it is something that we all have access to. We don’t need any special skills or talents to be kind; we just need to be willing to give of ourselves in meaningful ways. We might not see the change, but if we’re kind to someone else, that person will be more likely to be kind back. And so on and so forth. When we are kind, it changes those around us for the better.
World peace will arise from humanity’s consciousness and awareness of fear and hatred. We have been taught to fear those who are different from us, to hate those who do not share our beliefs or values. It is time for us to realise that we are all the same and that we should stop judging people based on their skin colour, religion or sexual orientation.
Keeping the peace doesn’t mean allowing unfair treatment. It means being able to stand up for yourself and others, while still being kind and caring. It means being able to say “no” without guilt or regret, but also knowing when you need help from friends or professionals. Keeping the peace means acknowledging your own needs as well as those of others.
