Wisdom

 


                To be kind is more important than to be right.

                Many times what people need is not a brilliant

                mind that speaks, but a special heart that listens.

  3. Yes, I agree! I don't know why it is so difficult for people to be kind.

  4. Hmm, yeah, it is actually possible to be kind and right (and genuine) all at once. Reminds me of a boss I once had who liked to say "It's more important to do the right thing than to do things right" as an excuse for mismanaging or manipulating situations and thereby creating collateral damage. I always wondered what was stopping him doing both. Laziness and ignorance I suspect!
