I think kindness is the key
to all that I might be
if I’m kind to others
they might be kind to me
if I live in kindness
there will be more harmony
any kindness I convey
radiates an awesome way
if no kindness in their heart for me
move away, let them be
they are kind to others I will see
just healthier for me to flee
please try your kindness key
it might just set us free
I agree. Cute poem. Kindness is the key.

Well crafted poem Kate. With kindness out in front of ourselves, we can pay it forward so others can pass it on down the line.

In regards to medical needs; for myself anyway if kindness were extended, there may not have been a need for a second opinion. But the kindness showed to us by the second Gent – made us feel so much more at ease. The fog will completely clear when we are done and then have learned of other tests results. Which won’t be for at least a month or so. But I truly think we can breathe easier.

yes professional kindness goes a very long way! I’ve quit some health practitioners due to the lack of it. The waiting is hard so glad you are breathing easier 🙂

Think of the audience, Kate, your kindness has gathered. We hail from all four corners, drawn to this site by the happiness you create. No doubt, for every one of “us,” there are three or four who like what they read, but don’t yet feel inspired to comment.
If each of us pays it forward to just two people, think of the positivity your kindness inspires. Absolutely torrential.

Definitely!!!! I think most people are kind. Whenever I travel I meet people who are nice. I’ve only had one occasion when someone was anything but, and all those on the train around were nice in response. I think most people want to be kind, if we just give them the chance.

Your poem hits the nail on the head, Kate. Kindness is indeed the key to living a meaningful, happy life. It is ours to give, whether or not it is reciprocated. The ones who lack the “Kindness Key” are locked out of so much joy, but they don’t have to rob ours! Our kindness is ours to give – and the more we give away, the more we have. It’s like love that way. I want to use your poem on my blog. Kindness is my theme this month. OK?
