The Most Neglected Kindness

I was watching the news today and found out that the Singapore Kindness Movement has dedicated the month of May for the Kindness Day SG cause. It’s a warm feeling that May 2016 is a month of kindness as it reminds myself to be kind to myself and others during my birthday month.

I believe one of the most neglected kindness is being kind to ourselves. Often, we beat ourselves up for our supposed failures, the things we didn’t do, the regrets we have and the unkind things we have done not only to others but to ourselves.

How can we be truly kind to others if we are not kind to ourselves? So, let us first start the kindness movement by acknowledging our imperfect selves and learn to be nicer to ourselves. This is because “Kindness inspires kindness”.
