When was the last time you were kind?

Sometimes I think being kind, good or just plain honest is getting out of style.
Have you noticed how some people will immediately deny that they are being kind or honest.

"No, no, I am just an ordinary guy who has no intention of being a saint", or "Please,you are embarrassing me" when you praise him or her for being a good person.

Why are people so afraid of being good? There's nothing wrong in doing a good deed or doing something nice for others. And yet, modern society seems to think random acts of kindness are passe.

We need to return to the basics, and that is the very core of human nature is goodness. Yes, we are all born good. Nobody is born bad. That is not logical or rational.

What's wrong in giving in to kindness, honesty, compassion and most of all love? What is it that triggers off those negative responses in being labelled as a good person?

Strange as it may seems but a lot of people are afraid that they may be described as hypocrites if they simply say thank you when you praise them.

If you do it honestly and without fear, sooner or later they know that it is just your nature that prompts it so.

So be kind, be honest, be full of mercy because the world needs more people like that.

For heaven's sake, don't dwell too much on what a nice person you are too. If you are obsessed with your own "greatness", that's a sure way of going to hell!
