Kindness resides in the dark corners of people’s mind,
Like a tiny spark ready to be ignited,
To flood the mind with the light of a kindness,
When life seems to be nothing but a pile of dread.
How else are we always finding a way ahead
When everything seems to be at a loss?
The path emerges as we show kindness to ourselves
and the mind shines in its glory!

I believe kindness can be contagious.it does need a little bit of spark before it spreads like wildfire. Showing kindness to ourselves is just as important. Beautiful words Vinitha.

It’s kindness that carries us through the storms in our life. Kindness by others and also the kindness that we show ourselves. Beautiful words, Vinitha!

I read this for the first time, but it still kept me in the dark, Vinitha. So, I have come back to read this again. It makes sense now. Most times it is kindness that has shown me the light. I’m not the torch-bearer, but I learn to be thankful for those who have shown me the power of kindness through their deeds. I wish someday I have that abundance of kindness shining within me to help myself and others see the spark 🙂
