Kindness and inclusivity matter, making everyone inclusive matters. The more well intentioned we are the more kindness there will be in the world. It is important everyone is treated equally and being supportive and respectful is necessary, if society is to flourish.
Cancel Culture
We all have the right to say what we feel without recourse, as long as what we say isn’t offending someone else. Cancel culture has cancelled groups out, it's also made it difficult for anyone to say anything, out of fear of a backlash.
Acts of Kindness
Any act of kindness however small is never wasted. It carries more weight than any statement. No matter what any of us deal with, ultimately we’re all still looking for ways to fit in. You matter, I matter, we all matter, kindness and inclusivity matters.
Actions speak louder than words
When you actively choose to act with kindness you are speaking more through your actions and less through your words. Of course words matter, but actions will always matter more. They say a lot about a person. Actions show we care, we can cleverly use words, but words also belie secrets and intentionality is everything. What we say and what we intend are different.
When we practice kindness, we cause a shift in our overall tone of how we choose to interact with others. That matters. When we take away an unconscious bias, we allow the love to flow. In today’s world we need it more than ever.
