Kindness.
Because, genuine kindness showed me the other side of humanity and gives hope for a better world. To know that there are people who have been hard and gone through their own trials to know that – sometimes, another human needs a helping hand without (potentially) benefitting from you.
This is grace,
I don’t know if this was part of my growth journey, but it definitely is, an experience that shaped the way I saw the world. For this lifetime,(for the most part) can be a rugged terrain, not for the faint hearted, and this can toughen many of us.
For all I know: Kindness is grown in the most arid and most challenging part of life. This is where one develops their empathetic side and therefore, administer kindness with grace.
