being kind can be a courageous act!

kindness often causes us to move beyond our fears, our own prejudices and ignorance. the call to act with kindness can reveal the walls that we have built around our hearts.

it takes courage to move beyond our fears, to open our hearts to something or someone new, to learn, to grow, and to remove these walls around our hearts so we are free to be kind and act with kindness.
