Kindness is a quality of being friendly, generous & considerate . In the modern world, it has lost its true meaning. Kindness has become a devils ploy, people use kindness as a channel to do unethical acts.
The world right now, has lost it. I see evil, negativity & manipulation everywhere these days. On the news, in family, among friends. It's really sad. Who to trust?
People who you consider close to you stab your back. Kindness! My ass.
Even if your kind to them, they take it as a weakness to exploit you and use you.
Family members, don't receive you because your kind to them, they only receive you if and only if you have some benefit for them. Life in general has become a Profit & Loss statement.
A decade ago I used to hear the words Love & Respect(Attribute of Kidness) when it comes to intimate relationships, now it has changed to Lust & Attraction. Have you guys noticed it also?
Insecurities in people have skyrocketed these days as a result it effects their act of kindness. They try to throw their insecurities at you and put you down to make them feel better.
I had asked a female acquittance of mine to introduce me to a cute friend of hers, who I had a crush on. She refused very harshly to me. I don't understand what goes on peoples mind in such situations. Maybe she had some insecurities regarding this friend of hers .Could you guys help me out here?
If someone had approached me with same request, I would have happily helped, who knows it could be a start of a beautiful relationship. If not it's not meant to be.
People should realize that, they are not in high school anymore. Like my good friend @wandereronwheels said " We are all adults, we know whats right and wrong for us".
Most people don't understand that. They still have the high school mean girl attitude.
I have even encountered some people, whom I have helped with all my heart, but when it was there chance they showed me their back.
Even friends these days, even manipulate for small issues. They lie, make up stories, change their gym schedule in order to get what they want from you.
It's a rare chance these days of meeting genuine people. If you do find, try to keep them.
An act of Kindness from a peer these days needs a second thought. So stay alert.
I know a lot of people but the humans I call good friends are less than the number of finger's on my single hand. I have a close knit circle of friends who are open minded and genuine.
Friends who keep your face up and not down. These friends help you accomplish your goals and also will be there for you when you need them with no Judgement.
I pray for all to have great friends in their life because sometimes bond of friendships end up being a closer bond than family.
I am really inspired by the story of Lebron James and his childhood friends. They have been with him through thick and thin and as Lebron James grew, he also lifted his friends up as well.
To end
They say "Kindness goes a long way". But I don't think it's valid anymore.
What about you guys? What are your thoughts on Kindness?
