Being kind, “expressing kindness, are actions that should not feel like a cost or a chore, but to many, it is a significant effort outside of its euphoric chemical reaction. Listening in on a recent lecture, the speaker reiterates, ‘it costs nothing to be kind,’ a thought I have carried for most of my adult life. Yet, thinking about the statement itself, is not without grey areas. This made me start thinking about what we become in the pursuit of kindness. Moreover, how we can become more aware of ‘kindness’ beyond loosely held perceptions and choose to embed it as a core function to how we live, learn, and listen.
