Kindness...

[Noodlesflyhigh]

If you like poetry, here is a poem that I really enjoyed...

Before you know what kindness really is you must lose things...
Feel the future dissolve in a moment, like salt in a weakened broth...
What you held in your hand, what you counted and saved, all this must go so you know how desolate the landscape can be between the regions of kindness...
How you ride, and ride thinking the bus will never stop, the passengers eating maize and chicken will stare out the window forever...
Before you learn the tender gravity of kindness, you must travel where the Indian in a white poncho lies dead by the side of the road...
You must see how this could be you, he was too someone who journeyed through the night with plans and the simple breath that kept him alive...
Before you know kindness as the deepest thing inside, you must know sorrow as the other deepest thing.
You must wake up with sorrow...
You must speak to it till your voice catches the thread of all sorrows, and see the size of the cloth...
Then it is only kindness that makes sense anymore, only kindness that ties your shoes, and sends you out into the day to mail letters and purchase bread...
Only kindness that raises it's head from the crowd of the world to say "It's I who you have been looking for", and goes with you everywhere like a shadow, and friend...

Hoped everyone enjoys that as much as I did...

Alright, if that one wasn't good enough...how about this one:


>Beautifully stated....
>As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to
>ever let you down probably will.
>
>You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder
>every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was
>broken.
>
>You'll fight with your best friend.
>
>You'll blame a new love for things an old one did
>You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose
>someone you love.
>
>So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've n ever been
>hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness
>you'll never get back.
>
>"Don't be afraid that your life will end,
>be afraid that it will never begin."
