On Kindness

”The true test of our character is the moment when someone commits an act toward us which we consider deplorable. It is this moment when we must choose between retaliation and forgiveness; between the mentality of ‘an eye for an eye’ or the transcendental where we break the cycle of wrongdoing through rising up to our higher self and choosing to respond to the atrocities directed to us with patience, kindness and ultimately, forgiveness. In other words, kindness is really about not being nasty to someone just because they have done us wrong.”
