Kindness is the act or the state of being kind, being marked by good and charitable behavior, pleasant disposition, and concern for others. It is known as a virtue, and recognized as a value in many cultures and religions (see ethics in religion). Research has shown that acts of kindness does not only benefit receivers of the kind act, but also the giver, as a result of the release of neurotransmitters responsible for feelings of contentment and relaxation when such acts are committed.
Today I am grateful for all the kind people in my life, and for all the kindness that has been extended to me in countless ways through the years.

It makes me sad when I have seen someone be unkind and I feel ashamed for the times I have been unkind.
How do I treat my friends? And most important, how do I treat my beloved family? They are mine forever. No matter our differences, we are genetically bound. Shouldn't I be my best self toward them?
I am working on it...
"Kindness is the essence of greatness and the fundamental characteristic of the noblest men and women I have known. Kindness is a passport that opens doors and fashions friends. It softens hearts and molds relationships that can last lifetimes...Kindness is the essence of a celestial life. Kindness is how a Christlike person treats others. Kindness should permeate all of our words and actions at work, at school, at church, and especially in our homes." ~ Joseph B. Wirthlin
