Goethe has a famous saying: Whether you are born noble or humble, it does not matter, but you must have a way of life.
What is "the way to be a human being"? I think no matter how many methods you use, they can't compare to the kindness in your heart.
To be kind, in a nutshell, means to be a down-to-earth person and do things in a down-to-earth manner.
Strive to be yourself, be kind to others, understand tolerance and gratitude, and cultivate your own moral character. Only such loyal people can receive real blessings.
01
A kind person is knowledgeable about the world
Chekhov once said: "Education does not mean eating without spilling the soup, but others spilling the soup. Don't look at him at this time."
A truly kind person seems to have done nothing, but has done everything.
They moisturize things silently, and will not touch each other's wounds, but choose to accompany them silently, waiting for them to get out of the predicament on their own.
This is the case with the famous Franklin, who integrated kindness into every detail of his life.
One day after work, when he and his colleagues were approaching the lobby, a woman walking in front suddenly slipped and fell to the ground.
When the colleague saw this, he immediately stepped forward to help, but Franklin grabbed him and the two hid behind a pillar.
The fallen lady quickly got up, looked around while arranging her dress and hair, and slowly walked away.
It was only then that Franklin pulled his colleague out from behind the pillar.
This scene confused my colleagues. Why did they hide instead of helping others when they saw others falling?
Franklin said seriously:
"Who wants others to see themselves embarrassed and embarrassed? We hid behind the pillar to make the lady sure that no one saw her. The embarrassing side. Otherwise, she will be ashamed when she meets us in the future."
There are too many embarrassing moments in life: quarrels in the office, quarrels between husband and wife, and drunkenness. Scruples, saying the wrong thing in public situations...
Everyone will encounter difficulties. When others are embarrassed, a kind person will not ask questions inappropriately. This is a kind of worldly understanding. , Human kindness and refined kindness.
I am reminded of a saying that noble people are slow to speak. The "Chi" here refers to the evaluation of a person or an event.
A gentleman is slow to speak, especially when others are being humiliated. The "chi" evaluation preserves the dignity of others to the greatest extent.
To be kind means to treat others in different places, to be considerate of others, not to speak selfishly, not to expose others' shortcomings, not to embarrass others, and to be generous and give others a chance to make amends.
Inaction is better than action, silence is better than sound. Many times, not disturbing or embarrassing is the greatest respect for a person.
02
A kind person is kind to others
A kind person generally has these qualities: integrity and good intentions.
Because you put yourself in others’ shoes, you will never let others suffer what you don’t want to suffer.
When Han Qi, the famous general of the Northern Song Dynasty and Duke of Wei, was commanding the army, he was working at his desk at night. The guard who was holding a wax light for him became distracted and the candle burned his hair on the temples.
Han Qi didn't care, just rubbed it with his sleeve and continued working. The next day, he found that the guard beside him had changed.
He was afraid that the captain of the guard would punish the guard, so he summoned the captain of the guard and said: "Don't replace him, because he already knows how to hold a candle."
The soldiers heard this. This incident made everyone moved by Han Qi's considerateness, and she has been devoted to him ever since.
Honesty has nothing to do with talent or knowledge. It is a virtue related to human nature. People with this virtue often have a "perfect" nature.
They put less emphasis on interests than on feelings, care less, and are more tolerant. They know how to consider others personally, and make people feel comfortable when they speak and do things. They are like the current hidden deep in the water, which looks like waves on the surface. Not surprised, but there is a powerful force deep inside.
The sharp energy is hidden in the chest, and the harmonious energy floats on the face. Talent can be seen in things, and loyalty can be applied to others. In life, everyone is more willing to have sex with such a person.
This is how people interact with each other. I will treat you how you treat me.
While kind people are kind to others, they will also receive gifts of kindness from others in different forms. What they do is also fulfilling themselves in some way.
So, kindness cannot be lost at all. Whenever you act kindly, be moral, and keep your duty, you would rather suffer a loss than do something against your will. You may lose temporary benefits, but you will gain a clear conscience and endless blessings.
03
A kind person is as wise as a fool
It is said that in dealing with people, it is easy to suffer losses if you are kind.
If you are still stuck at this level of understanding, it is too narrow-minded.
A gentleman is honest and honest, not superficial, simple and pure, not flashy.
To be kind does not mean to be a "good guy" blindly, but to be kind and tender, have a warm heart, and be kind to the world and others on the basis of distinguishing right from wrong.
The heroes in Jin Yong's works are all kind-hearted to the point of being "clumsy". Among them, Guo Jing is the most important.
This silly boy has an average appearance and mediocre qualifications, but he has counterattacked all the way. All the heroes in the martial arts are willing to give orders to him, and he has become a great chivalrous man that everyone respects, a hero who can help people in danger. Dignified and solid character.
Being judged as having poor qualifications, he has been practicing hard for ten years, regardless of whether he knows how to do it or not. It is precisely because of this diligence and tenacity that he is favored by the masters. He teaches all his unique secrets and eventually learns all kinds of superior martial arts and becomes a master;
He has been guarding Xiangyang for more than thirty years, tenaciously Protect the people behind you from being destroyed. His innate integrity in sacrificing his life for righteousness has won the support of countless heroes. Even though he later died in battle at the head of Xiangyang City, he was benevolent and deserved his death.
The great chivalrous person serves the country and the people.
Be firm in your stance in the face of major issues of right and wrong; be unwavering in the face of money and gain, be prudent in everything you do, and be dignified and decent in your treatment of others.
Such a character is enough to entrust you with important tasks and entrust you with important tasks.
When I read Jin Yong when I was young, what I read was the chivalrous spirit of kindness and righteousness; when I read Jin Yong in middle age, what I read is the generosity and kindness of the world.
As the old saying goes: "Great wisdom is like foolishness, great skill is like clumsiness." The intelligence shown everywhere may not necessarily explain a person's character.
Everyone has a balance in their heart. It is self-evident whether you are selfish or honest.
Some people are too shrewd, eager for quick success, and only think about themselves in everything. They take advantage of the moment and fall into trouble;
Some people make a lot of money because of their kindness. Continuous good luck.
After all, a strong personality is the foundation of a person’s life. Only by being kind, steady, and calm can you accumulate blessings in life.
A kind person may suffer at the moment, but I believe that one day your honesty will win the other person’s sincerity.
It is better to be candid than to care, and to be kind is worse than shrewd.
Only by being a kind person, being upright and magnanimous, and being steady and powerful in doing things can we gain the trust and support of others, and the road to life can be broad and steady.

A kind person will be blessed
Life in this world is like a long river flowing into the sea. What determines victory or defeat is never the gains and losses of one pass or another. The losses of one place and one time are the floods gathered by hundreds of rivers.
A person’s happiness is not destined by God, but must be cultivated bit by bit by oneself.
Throughout the ages, countless celebrities and distinguished people have confirmed:
Being kind has always been an indispensable quality in life and is the best Feng Shui in the world.
Maybe you will suffer losses if you are kind, maybe you will get hurt if you are kind, but God is watching what you do.
Your kindness will definitely win the recognition and respect of others; your kindness will eventually be favored by God and be rewarded with a lifetime of blessings.
To be virtuous and then carry things with you, if you reach this state as a person, you are already free.
May you be a kind person and may you be blessed throughout your life.
