Hi. Kindness will make the world a better place. Politeness will not. Politeness means you’re pretending that everything is ok in order to keep the social status quo. Kindness is recognizing someone is a human being even if they’re an absolute turd.
Also, kindness =\= niceness. Being “nice” means you’re cheerful & complimentary even when you don’t feel that way. Politeness & niceness are an act. They preserve the status quo. Kindness is revolutionary- it is the only weapon that will truly change the world for the better.
Being kind means you are not always polite or nice. That’s good. Because you shouldn’t be polite to the people who hurt others. But if you’re kind...you realize that not everyone is out to hurt others. And you leave your enemies less fodder for gaslighting.
Jesus truly knew what he was talking about when he said to love our enemies. He didn’t say to be polite to them. He said to love them.
The thing is, if we love our enemies, sometimes we come to the realization that WE are the ones hurting others. Other people aren’t the problem. We are the problem.
We can’t change other people. We can only change ourselves. Sad but true. Start with yourself.
OMG Thank you. Politeness is masking to me. It's living in fear of giving a good impression instead of taking care of yourself and others.
