That doesnt mean kindness is cheap but it means - it is NOT FOR SALE and sometimes it is out of stock - Isnt that the problem some of us have? Is our kindness sometimes - or in certain situations - out of stock? That some people are BORN kind and others not is a myth - the truth is that we sometimes do not feel kind. Kindness is a condition which we come aware of - we choose it and practise it until we can apply it with sincerity to those around us. One could not be negative - bitter and assertive while are being kind.No, kindness makes everything easier and enjoyable!!! Kindness is also one of the ninefold FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT. We as children of God does not even have a choice here!!! ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ *!* Colossians 3:12 *~* CLOTHE YOURSELF THEREFORE - AS GODS OWN CHOSEN ONES (His own picked representatives),WHO ARE PURIFIED AND HOLY AND WELL BELOVED BY GOD HIMSELF,BY PUTTING ON BEHAVIOR MARKED BY TENDERHEARTED PITY AND MERCY,KIND FEELING - A LOWLY OPINION OF YOURSELVES - GENTLE WAYS AND PATIENCE WHICH IS TIRELESS AND LONG-SUFFERING AND HAS THE POWER TO ENDURE WHATEVER COMES - WITH GOOD TEMPER. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Be calm ~ Be kind ~ Be patient ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ Concentrate on the peace of Jesus ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ Smile ~ Care ~ Share ~ Love ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ And CHOOSE kindness ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ Have a beautiful day God Bless Shalom
