Unfortunately I think tragedy creates a kinder world. When things like the pandemic or floods or hurricanes or war happen- people often forget their relatively small problems and genuinely want to help others. if people had this mindset without something like a war happening I'm sure we'd have a kinder world

kindness is now only completed if it can be posted to show the world or talked about. Why is it the population now only see something good worth doing if it can be posted somewhere else. This isn't kindness, this is ego boosting. Everyone also loves to have something to complain about, why are we focusing on the negatives and not preaching about what we all have to be grateful for?

I think kindness comes from a place of self love and gratitude and wanting to then pass that feeling on to someone else. However, we currently live in a place where everyone is comparing their lives to someone else that lives thousands of miles away because their life is so easy to access - no wonder everyone is miserable. It needs to change!

We're built for physical contact which = emotional contact. Have hugs been replaced with digital emojis? Should we add a new pronoun - OTH, Open to hugs - just so, you know people know. You can tell a lot by how someone hugs, take my Son for example hes a more pat you on the back awkwardly kind of hugger :)

Kindness that comes naturally in-built and not driven by bullshit culture driven virtue signalling.

Resiliency, collaboration, positive acceptance and when required compromise...built on learning and experience. We're being brainwashed into worrying about everything - to seek out conflict, offence, difference wherever we look and whoever we communicate with. We need to take back control of the strings that pull us.

Love, love and love - its honestly a superpower we're losing. The good old phrase..holding a resentment is like drinking poison and expecting the person you resent to get ill....should be literally handed out as a prescription or in christmas crackers...or on bloody ticktok. We are being encouraged daily to collectively poison ourselves. We need to change...x
