OH YES!!! I soooooooo agree on the kindeness thing! Why do people just forget to be kind??? When someone steps into a role with a name to it like husband or wife or boss or president of such and such....people forget humanness, and KINDNESS. We do have to also remember to be kind to ourselves and not make choices that are self-destructive...but when it comes to the way we treat others sometimes people can remember kindness towards total strangers and somehow forget it totaly with those they are closest to. There's just no substitute.

I don't see the directive "to harm none" being a neutral gear way to live....I mean you can't just say, I wasn't MEAN, if you are holding back kindness. It's like holding back water and justifying it by saying, well I didn't cause your thirst!

JMHO!

love and light,
Dreemy
