The highest reward for a person's toil is not what they get for it but what they become by it.

Liberated by kindness

Kindness is evidence of great strength. When you are strong enough to respond with kindness, you are strong indeed.

It would be easy to return the insults of others with insults of your own. Kindness, on the other hand, not only shows you are strong, it adds to your strength.

Kindness puts you in control. Kindness raises you above what’s petty and insignificant.

You don’t have to be trapped by resentment, envy or frustration. You can be liberated by kindness.

Let anger end when it reaches you. Enable new kindness to begin with you.

Discover how strong, how effective, how influential you can be. Whatever the situation, choose kindness.

— Ralph Marston
