I believe there is kindness in everybody by JH. Here is a quote by F Scott Fitzgerald, “To be kind is more important than to be right. Many times what people need is not a brilliant mind but a special heart that listens.” A couple things that help me believe this is memories of bad days turned around and that little voice in my mind saying to be kind constantly.
Whether you are the only one that believes there is kindness within somebody and everybody else thinks they are the biggest jerk. There has to be some kindness. Something had to have happened in the past nobody is born rude. You just have to know how to find a way help them find how to be kind how to have joy in their life. If you are kind it might help them want to help others to be as well. It might be easier for me because I grew up with a family that we try to be kind to everybody. There was the occasional fight of course but when we stopped and thought about how stupid the thing we were fighting about was we said I am sorry and laughed about it. Even without growing up with that you can be kind you just have to remind yourself constantly

My birthday was great in the morning but when I got to school somebody said something to me that made me feel down and sad all day I walked slower did not smile as much my friends did not see the difference but somebody who was normally by them self-asked me the most simple question. They asked, “are you okay?” Since then, I have believed that everybody has kindness, even somebody who has been left alone and has nobody to talk to can find

The greatest gift that a person could ever receive is a smile. “Everybody in the world is seeking happiness… Happiness doesn’t depend on outward conditions. It depends on inner conditions.” Some say that a smile is a window to your soul, and the reality is a smile can change your mood even if you fake one. Like the psychologist and philosopher William James says, “Action seems to follow feeling, but really action and feeling go together.” Even when there are struggles a smile can change your mood and reduce the pain. Like Carnegie implies, “You must have a good time meeting people if you expect them to have a good time meeting you.” This is very important because you can not expect people to happy around you when you sit with a frown in your face. A smile is a wonderful gift because it cost nothing and brightens anybodies day.
It’s very simple, but creates a world of difference. This means so much to me, in so many ways. Kindness will make a person feel better, even if they aren’t that way themselves. I’ve seen the change simple kindness can make. It can change the outlook on someone’s life, or give someone a little hope.
Have you ever heard the expression “kill ‘em with kindness”? To me this means, no matter how much someone has hurt or disappointed you always be kind to them.
“Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see” – Mark Twain.
“Sometimes it 's easy to walk by because we know we can 't change someone 's whole life in a single afternoon. But what we fail to realize it that simple kindness can go a long way toward encouraging someone who is stuck in a desolate place.” ~ Mike Yankoski
The virtue of kindness is not meek it is not niceness. Kindness holds firm to its foundation and values, but it does it in a way that is gentle. Kindness is not naïve, it is wise and discerning (Corey, 211). People confuse being nice as kindness because on the outside both are soft. The inside is what shows the difference. Niceness has no substance, it will go wherever society takes it. Kindness is different, it has a firm, solid center (Corey xv). The components of soft edges and firm centers make kindness warm and inviting and yet it remains deeply rooted to its core beliefs.
Seneca writes, “kindliness forbids you to be over-bearing towards your associates, it forbids you to be grasping” (Seneca). One who is warm- hearted has an easier time dealing with people. Kindliness allows one to treat others as one would want to be treated. Kindliness serves one greatly in a new surrounding or environment. Seneca also states “In words and deeds shows itself gentle and courteous to all men” (Seneca). Being kind through our words can help one build strong and happy relationships. Being kind through deeds shows that one is willing to help those in need and not expect anything from such deeds. Kindliness is a great virtue to have because it serves as a gateway to better human interaction and
The act of kindness comes by very seldom. “Being kind and generous to people will take you very far in life” is what my great grandmother always told me. Smiling from ear to ear, eyes gazing across the room and that special touch are all it took for her to make someone day. Many days were made if you were surrounded by her and saw that big, bright, and beautiful smile. Soft hands are what she had from giving her entire life. No one went without, you could be a total stranger but she would give you her last.
