“It happens all the time in heaven,
And some day
It will begin to happen
Again on earth –
That men and women who are married,
And men and men who are
Lovers,
And women and women
Who give each other
Light,
Often will get down on their knees
And while so tenderly
Holding their lover’s hand,
With tears in their eyes,
Will sincerely speak, saying,
My dear,
How can I be more loving to you;
How can I be more kind?”
~ HAFIZ ~
To be kind is to show and express gestures of good will, combining sympathy, forbearance, graciousness and humanism. Kindness is a microwave that heats, thaws, heals and mends in many simple ways and manners i.e. a soothing touch; a gentle word, a warm smile, a loving look, a soft expression, a show of genuine concern, giving a helping hand, offering of support and encouragement, and sharing of feelings.
Please watch the heart warming video below for tips on how you can be more kind too. I love how the video exemplifies the saying “You reap what you sow”. Kindness has that heart warming, positive ripple effect…..see the ripple effect in this video. Its amazing 🙂
Your Positive Prompt this Sunday: Pay attention to your thoughts, words and actions. Add more kindness to them this week. Begin at home with your near and dear ones. Often we take our loved ones for granted and forget to be kind to them. Kindness works like magic!

What goes around comes around Zeenat. And I love Brother Iz. Too bad he left us at such a young age. Thanks for this, it brought a big smile to my face. As our five year old little sprite likes to say – just be kind.
Dear Elle,
Oh kindness does come back around ten folds 🙂
So glad this post made you smile…. see you smile and I feel all good here. Kindness with a smile 🙂
Much Love~
A little kindness can change the world, one person at a time. Thanks for sharing Zeenat!
Hi Cathy,
Now aint that the truth!
Thank you for sharing your light here Cathy 🙂
Much Love~
To more kindness! Thanks Zeenat.
Love and light coming your way Brad! Thank you for your loving smile here 🙂
Oh, it’s so true that we often neglect those nearest to us. Kindness really needs to begin at home and then extend to the whole world!
Hi Sandra,
Its so funny how we be all prim and proper outside, but when it come to our family kindness just goes out the window. A conscious effort on our part is definitely needed in that department.
Thank you for your loving comment here.
Much Love~
Zeenat, this will probably be one of my most favorite posts by you (did that make sense?). Kindness is a wonderful habit and I think, can conquer almost all negativity! Love you. Hugs!
Darling Vidya,
you make sense to my heart sweetie 🙂 And you are the epitome of kind my dear…
Love you right back~
