When you think about the word ‘kind’ or when you are doing an act of ‘kindness’ I bet for most people ‘unhealthy’ is not a word or thought that even crosses your mind. I know for myself, I had not combined those two words together, as I thought of it as a notation of an oxymoron.
As the older I get the wiser I am becoming, because there are so many people including myself that do an act of kindness to be helpful and show care without even thinking about the actual outcome of your kind acts.
So, before you kindly loan a friend money, give a neighbor a ride or even offer a helping hand; think beyond your kindness and consider if there may be any reprimands that may be a result of your kindness towards others. I know that I would not want to be stuck at a bank as my offered ‘kind ride’ becomes the getaway ride ️. Or my ‘kind $20’ I borrowed finds a bad path for someone’s future.
Sometimes saying no can be the best kindness anyone can offer. So, please keep on being kind, especially to yourselves, but remember to always keep your kindness healthy!
