Kindness is love in action. If patience is how love reacts in order to minimize a negative circumstance, kindness is how lover acts to maximize a positive circumstance. Patience avoids a problem; kindness creates a blessing. One is preventive, the other provocative. These tow sides of love are the cornerstones on which many of the other attributes we will discuss are built. Love makes you kind. And kindness makes you likable. When you're kind, people want to be around you. They see you as being good to them and good for them. Four ingredients to kindness: Gentleness, Helpfulness, Willingness, and Initiative.
Today's Dare: IN ADDITION TO SAYING NOTHING NEGATIVE TO YOUR SPOUSE AGAIN TODAY, DO AT LEAST ONE UNEXPECTED GESTURE AS AN ACT OF KINDNESS.
What discoveries about love did you make today? What specifically did you do in this dare? How did you show kindness?
