The weight of words.

Caring about others is a value those who obtain are the ones that are truly the richest and most blessed. Being kind and gentle is always a good idea, you never know how much you could change just by uttering a few simple kind words or even by preforming a very simple act showing compassion. Humans tend to underestimate being soft and gentle , we often think it represents weakness but those who truly show love are the mighty ones.

“love is stronger than force” , some believe this but many sadly don’t. Various kings and rulers decided to lead and control others through fear , they might've been successful but the ones that ruled showing mercy were the ones the people were truly loyal and devoted to. Showing love and being obliging to people represents who you are, it shows others that you’re ready to help them without expecting help in return, when in reality you’ll actually end up receiving the help you need from those you’ve shown compassion.

Society tends to label being soft as an unnecessary trait , a trait that could do more harm than good, but that is definitely not true. I've had my fair share of depressing days and one thing i do know is that when a stranger smiled at me or when someone tried being kind to me my mood completely shifted, those strangers probably don’t know that they’ve made my days way better, they didn’t even put much effort into making my day better, but without them i would’ve slept bothered at night. A few simple acts do change a lot , they impact others in ways you couldn’t imagine “gentleness is stronger than severity,” said Siddhartha and that is true on so many levels.

People talk a lot about being compassionate, merciful, and kindhearted but they don’t act as often as they talk. Almost everyone talks about being kind but very few actually do things to make others smile. I’ve read countless articles spreading awareness about how kind words and actions can change lives, but i wonder if the authors actually follow their written down thoughts. Children nowadays have been memorizing the sayings such as “no act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted” and “Be kind whenever possible” but is that truly enough? kids need to observe in order to learn therefore, adults need to be kind to others during their daily lives for kids to actually understand the importance of a few words.

In conclusion, a few simple words do actually matter , being soft makes you stronger and smiling in a strangers face could actually change that strangers life. People are beautiful by the impact they leave behind in others life, showing and expressing your emotions is truly and deeply important in various ways.
