Forget the rise of the machines, I say let’s hear it for the rise of kindness!

I read this recently:

“Three things in human life are important: the first is to be kind; the second is to be kind; and the third is to be kind”.

The Bible says: “Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another” (Eph 4v32).

“Clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience” (Col 3v12).

Aesop said “No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted”. That is so true.

I think we should start a kindness campaign (although there are SO many amazing, kind people around already ... we just need to sometimes be more obvious about it in smaller ways too). 

Can you imagine if everyone became passionate about kindness, true kindness (as opposed to demonstrative generosity) ... so many other causes, concerns, calamities and crimes would simply vanish or become defunct. Jealousy, pride, self-promotion, greed, anger, bitterness, and so much more, would be reduced through the rise of kindness.

Sides of buses, billboards, banners hanging from bridges on the motorways, at train stations ... the words “Be Kind”.

Yep, me in my bubble world. It’s a nice place though 😊.
