"Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see"- how true is this quote by the famous American author,Mark Twain! In this world,where people run to earn money "kindness" is far beyond their reaches.To be kind,I feel,one should be a good human being. Kindness should be in your hearts,in your dealings with others.When you make others happy with your good deeds you have studied what kindness is.It should not be confined to your family and relationships but to every single person you meet.Be sympathetic and considerate to all.Helping the poor and disabled,giving food for the needy,offering helping hands to the aged,supporting the orphans are all good acts of kindness.

Kindness is a godly act.It instills in you the feeling of love and harmony to every single organism on earth.If you help a blind person cross the road then you are kind.Even when you are a mother and you have the same love towards other children then you understand the meaning of kindness.Kindness has the magical power of eradicating cruelty from every heart.If you help someone you bring happiness not only to your minds but also to others.Healthy mind leads to a healthy body.Every parent should teach their children to be kind.Happiness brings peace and tranquility to the whole world.

Kindness should not be materialistic.Helping others without expecting any returns is true kindness.You feel rewarded with happiness for every kind act of yours. Its really hard to see through various sources how people are badly affected due to wars,bombings and environmental hazards.If people are kind enough then we could stop all wars and bring unity to the whole world.We can also save the lives of millions of people through one act of kindness.I stongly feel kindness in every single heart is an absolute necessity in the present scenario.

We have just one life; so learn to live helping others by being kind and compassionate.Try to follow the footsteps of our great personalities who played a major role in serving humanity.Kindness is a priceless treasure.One just needs to be good at heart to be kind.So,learn and practise kindness.
