Kindness is a Funny Concept

There seems to be trouble with kindness. It is funny that such an emotion could be unfortunately construed as something strange and unfamiliar to some. But, I've learned that to explore the notion of kindness, one has to take themselves out of their own personality for a while and think about it in its abstract.

Kindness is something that people either have or don't. It is not an enforced feeling. It is not a feeling that takes away from one's intellect or quality. It is something that you can do in order to create good will and foster a sense of well-being amongst your fellow man. There's nothing wrong about talking about it or exploring it. There's nothing wrong with dealing with it or exploring ways to go towards other vistas in discussing it.

When kindness becomes a part of the issue when it has to do with personality, it then becomes bogged down with negative emotion. It is sad that for such an emotion people can unleash the worst aspects of character in order to stop its progress.

However, when kindness is discussed as it is by people who care, then the best aspects of one's humanity comes out. It's about time that kindness returns to the very aspect of civility and celebrated as an act that can bring people together instead of tear them apart.

At least, you would think so.
