Recognizing Kindness

There are things in life, That we search for all our life, But fail to find, Or fail to recognize when we do find. Kindness is high on the list, And like others on the list, If you search for it, You will be lucky if you find it, But if you have good insight, You will recognize it when it comes into sight.

Thanks for the feedback Bill. You are right, we all long for kindness. I have been a recipient of so much kindness on the soup.
