It sounds so easy doesn't it?
We all like to think we're kind but the truth is it's easy to be kind to the people we like and love, but what about when those people annoy us, make us angry or are unkind to us?
The Dalai Lama says 'be kind whenever possible-it is always possible.' but sometimes it just doesn't feel possible, we tend to react when really it would be better to take a step back, count to ten and then respond kindly.
Note to self, start practising what you preach from today.
