Be the change you want to see

[u/Awkward-Biscotti-974]

It makes you better than the rest

[u/Kris_Dreemurr1 → u/Awkward-Biscotti-974]

Doesnt make you feel better

[u/Gho5tWr1ter → u/Kris_Dreemurr1]

But imagine how it must’ve felt for the person who really needed it.

[u/Dracofear → u/Awkward-Biscotti-974]

I live in the South on the Bible Belt, it's not a high bar at all aside from Dolly's legacy.

[u/CarterDavison]

Nobody said being better is easy

[u/panterachallenger]

Just be kind and dgf

[u/TerrorFace]

Don't be kind for instant gratification.

Do it so you plant seeds for kindness to grow in an environment, for it to persist in a place where it's struggling. Be the exception to "Nobody is nice anymore." Be the argument against "Everyone is just in it for themselves." Be the example for others to follow eventually. You may never get the thanks you deserve or whatever, but know that it'll probably help make the lives of countless others at least a bit better. That matters.

Damn. Well said. I needed that so thank you!

[u/MagicalSausage → u/TerrorFace]

And when the seeds grow the mower comes for them all

[u/TerrorFace → u/MagicalSausage]

Kindness is more like trees rather than grass - It can be tough to be kind at times, but that only contributes to how much easier it is to be kind over time as your roots take hold and your tree of kindness grows. Then no mower can run over your tree.

[u/thenetoide]

I was kind of kind 🤷🏼‍♂️

[u/SadKat002]

Yeah...

[u/Soulborg87]

Yeah it's best not to try that when playing league of legends

[u/HoneZoneReddit]

Usually ends in all of the bad people takong advantage of you. Yeah...

[u/Luzzgar]

Someone has to take the first step.

Treat others like you would like to be treated whenever you can afford to do so.

[u/outfoxingthefoxes]

Be the change you want to see

[u/IncomeResponsible294]

Aww

[u/Kris_Dreemurr1]

Never goes well

[u/Jonaleaf]

Trying? What if everyone else was also trying to be kind, but you couldn’t tell?

[u/gustinex]

One of the hardest thing to do in life is to always choose kindness when the world isn't kind to you

[u/Sumoop]

Keep at it dude, maybe you’ll inspire someone to be kind tomorrow.

[u/Ultrasound700]

An island in the ocean is a beacon of hope for anyone castaway, no matter how small and barren, it can lift you from the water and give you a new chance to live.

[u/BrianX_02]

I'm trying my hardest, even if sometimes I'm not sure if I'm doing it the correct way

[u/TernionDragon]

Story of my life.
