What is Kindling Kindness?

KINDLING

 We all depend on positive feedback,
confirmation that we are doing well,
being told that we are making
great progress, and  that we are loved.
  
We all thrive when others show
interest, say 'thank you', tell us
(and others), that we are amazing, and,
when they encourage us onwards.
 
These inputs from others create
new energy within us, for each comment
and smile is like kindling for the fire,
burning within each of us.
 
Kindling comes from the word kind, 
and means to initiate and build kindness,
in every thought, in every word,   ​
 in every moment and with every person.
