Kindness is a big thing.“当我年轻的时候,我钦佩有智慧的人,当我逐渐成熟的时候,我钦佩待人和蔼,易于向他人表达善意的人。我想成为他们的一员,我们的世界需要更多善意的人,而不是其对立面。” Kindness is the act or the state of being kind and marked by [1] charitable behavior, marked by mild disposition, pleasantness, tenderness and concern for others.

  • During my second year of nursing school our professor gave us a quiz.  I breezed through the questions until I read the last one:  “What is the first name of the woman who cleans the school?”  Surely this was a joke.  I had seen the cleaning woman several times, but how would I know her name?  I handed in my paper, leaving the last question blank.  Before the class ended, one student asked if the last question would count toward our grade.  “Absolutely,” the professor said.  “In your careers, you will meet many people.  All are significant.  They deserve your attention and care, even if all you do is smile and say hello.”  I’ve never forgotten that lesson.  I also learned her name was Dorothy.  ~Joann C. Jones

  • If we should deal out justice only, in this world, who would escape?  No, it is better to be generous, and in the end more profitable, for it gains gratitude for us, and love.  ~Mark Twain
