The Dali Lama, admired, world-wide, as a spiritual leader tells us, "My true religion is kindness. Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible."
I ask myself what exactly is it to be kind and how do I recognize this quality, and am I always kind? Do I think it always possible?
Being curious to know more and explore further, I got out my trusted Thesaurus, and found there were over forty qualities related to kindness.
I picked a few of the associated virtues to explore more fully.
I learned that in our relationships there are four qualities that we think of as showing kindness….
Understanding
Sympathy
Empathy
Compassion
