Health & Fitness (of the mind) - Are you kind?


Has anyone ever said to you that they were kind and you had to look at them to see if they were being serious?
I know I have. No, I do not think that people who are kind do not experience pain or disappointment or may not have moments of anger or upset. What I have learned about kindness or someone who is kind is that the characteristic of kindness is revealed regardless of the receiver of said kindness. What I mean is that kindness sees no color, sees no gender, sees no socioeconomic status, sees no sexual orientation, etc. A kind person is kind regardless of who you are or where you come from. A kind person is colorblind. That can never be mistaken. When we pick and choose who we are kind to, then we simply exhibit in those moments kindness. This isn’t a terrible thing. However, kind moments do not make us kind souls. Kind people are imbued with kindness. It’s who they are and they make no excuses for it. 

So, question of the day. Are you a kind person or do you have kind moments? What if your response is neither?
