Kindness (Inspirational Speech)

A.D Williams once said
Imagine what seven billion humans could accomplish
If we loved and respected one another
Just imagine
Imagine if there was no greed
Imagine if there was no comparison
If everyone was running their own race
But cheering for all others at the same time

Maybe we'll never see that in our lifetime
But what we all can do is start with ourselves
Start with yourself
Choose to lift others up
Choose to set the example
The example of kindness and integrity
The example of compassion and understanding

There's a quote that says
"No matter how educated, talented, rich or cool you believe you are
How you treat people ultimately tells all"
Integrity is everything, it really is
Who you are is far more important than what you have
And it will always be
Who you are is measured by how you make others feel
Be kind to each other

In a world where you can be anything, be kind
Choose to be the change you wish to see in the world
Decide you will not wait for someone else, you will set the example
Be kind because you'll never know how much that person is suffering inside
You'll never know the difference your words can make
The difference your presence can make
The difference you can make to one human life

Be the reason someone believes in the goodness of humanity
Be the reason someone else decides to make a difference in others
Be the influence you want to see more of, always do what is right
Not what is easy in the moment
Kindness spreads like a violence
When you do good to another
That person does better to those they come in contact with
You really can make a big difference in the world today and every other day

Ann Frank said
"In a long run, the sharpest weapon of awe is a kind and gentle spirit"
No one has ever made themselves great by showing how small another is
Be kind and always build others up to the best of your ability
Treat everyone with the same level of kindness that you would like for yourself
Not because everyone is nice but because you are
Because karma makes no mistakes, because it is right
Because you have integrity
Because you want this world to be better when you leave than when you arrive
