The true essence of humankind is kindness.
There are other qualities which come from education or knowledge,
but it is essential,
if one wishes to be a genuine human being
and impart satisfying meaning to one’s existence,
to have a good heart.
-H.H. The Dalai Lama

That’s so true. I read somewhere that the happiest people are those who aren’t trying really hard to be happy… they just live their lives; they’re your next door neighbors always offering to lend a hand shoveling or mowing the lawn.
It’s funny how much meaning one can find in something so simple as being kind.
