    To me, being kind is a priority. If there's a choice, I usually pick being kind over other options.

    Mr. Chadwick, i just wanted to thank you for this thread. It seems all too often we get caught up in drama here on the AET/forum. Your thread is like a cool refreshing breeze on a hot summer day. Thank you.

    who the hell are you and what have you done with 81?


    yes, I'm kind, sometimes too much. I grew up with one parent who was a tyrant and another who was kind and easy going, I've also found that being kind and respectful will get you further than being an a-hole.

    I'm awesome until you get on my bad side...then, I pretty much have no use for you.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I am probably too kind, to a fault even. But if you do treat me bad, I am a pro at being passive-aggressive - I will treat you kindly, but somehow you will feel all is not well..... :mrgreen:

    There has been only one person that has made me treat them unkind and that made me feel bad, but I am getting over it.

    I am a kind person, but I have my (thoughtless) moments. :oops:

    I enjoy being kind everyday to anyone that crosses my way. ( not sugery ) just kindness.

    I believe that my day just goes better and I have less stress, if I'm kind.

    Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
    Mark Twain

    Why not be kind? Life is too short my friends, and a random act of kindness is free and makes all parties involved feel great.

    Great thread - I love you people!!!!

    I learned first hand that nice guys finish last. Ladies often appreciate that though. :P

    I am kind by default.

    But I have a short, impatient temper and shoot off at the mouth when i'm pissed off.

    I wouldn't expect Bukowski to say something like that.... ever.
