My brother once said, "If you want to be kind, don't use it against people." If we want to be sincerely nice and benevolent, we can't ask anything in return for it- or else our kindness isn't genuine. Give, not expecting anything in return.

If even a small precentage of the population, applied this mentality to their lives, the world would have positive ramifications. It's almost a radical notion. What? I'm not asking for something in return? It's not all about me! The whole world isn't revolving around me and my needs! Preposterous!
And in that lies the key why society has become so miserable. They are consumed, absorbed,engulfed in themselves. The excess of prosperity has begun to rot within them. Wherein, once, it was freely being given away, now mold and infestation has taken over.
A quote by Leo Buscaglia:
" Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around"
