On the heels of Remembrance Day and the super typhoon’s devastation, World Kindness Day is a welcome respite. Thanks to fingerprintwriting for the original post. Let’s each do two acts of kindness tomorrow. Pass it on . . . ~ Linne
Wednesday, November 13, 2013 is World Kindness Day. In honor of this special day, I’ve collected a few quotes to share with you. The counselor at my school shared this video clip with me and I want to pass it along.
That best portion of a man’s life, his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.~ William Wordsworth
You cannot do a kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn’t anyone who doesn’t appreciate kindness and compassion.~Dalai Lama
Tenderness and kindness are not signs of weakness and despair, but manifestations of strength and resolution.~Kahlil Gibran
A kind word is like a spring day.~Russian Proverb
Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for a kindness.~Seneca
I agree…kindness is the grease that makes humanities wheels keep turning when corporate greed would rust it still. I also love that Aesop quote. He was a wise old bugger wasn’t he? 🙂
Yes he was; the Dalai Lama is so right, too. We all appreciate kindness and compassion. Well, they were all good quotes. Reading them made me feel better.
