A Little Kindness Never Hurts

A Little Kindness Never Hurts A little kindness never hurts, yet today, find extremely rare. Indifference foretold for last days, cause fewer people … care. I posses God’s gift of free will, gives me choice, of how I will act. Kindness and impartiality, daily my way of life … true fact. With unprejudiced servants heart, quickly learned to bite my tongue. Instead, give compliments, graciously to all races, aged, homeless … young. Being kind, natural as breathing, if to all men, dignity show. If follow Christ example, with or without words ... kindness know.. Acknowledge someone’s important, give generous tip, thank you, a smile, Cashier, maid, garbage man , police, handicapped … or unruly child. Peace, kindness, love flow, from respect for men, from various walks of life. When don’t seek to always be right, might find loving … husband or wife. Nice feelings stir within my heart, concept … wish mankind could feel, know. When,“consider others better,” way, Phil. 2:3 … does show. Concept … foundation for kindness, easier be kind, do no harm. If world practiced what I believe, it might not … take up arms. A Little Kindness Never Hurt December 3, 2018 Enter contest by Brenda Chirl

Congratulations, and excellent post my dear sister of God's inspirational grace, Barbara. I love the flow of the words and the impact of the message. The descriptive excellence is lovely and sends terrific images. The theme of "Kindness" stands out, and the tone moves the piece down the page with much grace. Great job! Have a fantastic day, with God's richest grace and blessings to you and your loved ones always.

I loved your entry Barbara. I feel the same way. Two of my children are teachers and the other two, one is a nurse the other therapeutic massage therapist. I couldn't be prouder of their vocations. Congratulations on your wonderful win! I just posted my entry too late for this contest. I got too busy. Have a happy holiday. : )

Nothing like thanking you 6 months later. I didn't know I'd won anything. I probably wouldn't if you had entered. You know how much like your works. Thank you.
