Be Kind

Comment from Dawn Munro
Well, not only is this polished, flawless, it's touching and a philosophy that could, indeed, change the world. You have my last six for an essay that could only be written by someone who practices this philosophy, someone I hope I know! (Someone who inspires another step when some days it hardly seems worth the bother...)
Best of luck in the booth.

Comment from Roxanna Andrews
Great advise for all of us. In this world where social media is used to berate and shame people all the time, it is a good reminder that being kind can make a huge difference in our world and in just one life. Very well written. I saw no errors and I'm sure your son will grow to be a very wonderful man.

Comment from Debbie Pope
Hear, hear! The first thing that I posted at FanStory was a short 3 liner that said all I need is a kindly man. To me, that said everything that needed to be said, as does your essay. I would give it a six star rating if I had one. It deserves it for your insight. Thank you for this. Nothing else matters more than kindness.

Be kind is such great advice. I teach four year olds and I am constantly impressing that in them...I reward kindness and try to be kind myself
It's hard at times
I enjoyed this immensely
Well penned

Comment from Alexander Vasa
Wow, this was a very touching story. Fancy being that loving. I don't think I could do it. I love hearing about this sort of selflessness. It does your heart good to know there are people of this caliber out there. I noticed no errors and thanks for sharing this great story, which I found a pleasure to read and review, Ana.
