The other day, I was talking to my students about how to get our mindset for the act of kindness.
I said, " Friends we cannot control everything that happens to us, but we can control how we face it, and when things shake or become more complicated, we must always choose kindness and gratitude!"
I said, "Friends sometimes make mistakes about kindness. People think that since a person is kind/they will let her/him self get walked on by everyone.”
Sudesh said, "And on the opposite end, it’s easy to mistake 'only be kind to people who are kind to you' as 'give people the cold shoulder unless they earn your kindness!”.
I said, " Judge kindness by your energy. Invest where your energy will be put to use the best."
Ram Said, "I tend to invest in people until I realize that they aren’t interested in growing with me. I’ll have a conversation with him/her until I realize all he wants is an argument, then I’ll leave and go somewhere else. "
I said, "It’s not being 'unkind, ' it’s me reserving my energy for people who actually want to grow together."
I further said, "My main objective is to make sure another person’s lack of kindness doesn’t cause me to become hardened and unkind to others."
Radhe said, "It can happen very easily: You encounter a couple of cruel people here and there, you may conclude, 'People are just cruel!” And then you approach everyone with hard feelings, with anticipation of being abused by them, and you start spreading the same cruelty you’re trying to avoid. It’s a twisted cycle."
Rakesh said, "How to cultivate a kind mindset."
I said," Be kind to yourself."
Radhe said, "Extend the same compassion and understanding to yourself that you offer to others, especially during challenging times. But be careful! People may not take you for a ride, thinking that since you believe in kindness therefore you will get mistaken for their constructed emotional story."
I said, "Practice letting go of grudges to foster inner peace and kindness. "
Saroj said, "Madam, being kind to others gives you cool. When you help your friend, your happiness will never end."
I said, "Every bit of kindness, like giving a smile or helping hand, etc., you give to others one or other days will come back to you in one form or another."
Moral -Kindness is a way of life. But be careful in the act of kindness, you do not get cheated. Cultivate the virtue of kindness by helping needed person at the right time.
