Kindness is a universal language from "summary" of The Happiest Man on Earth by Eddie Jaku
Kindness is a universal language. It knows no barriers of race, religion, or nationality. It is a currency that holds the same value in every corner of the world. Whether you are rich or poor, young or old, kindness is a gift that everyone can afford to give. In my darkest days, when I was a prisoner in a concentration camp, kindness was the light that shone through the darkness. It was a simple act of kindness from a stranger that gave me hope when all seemed lost. A piece of bread shared with me by a fellow prisoner was not just food for my body, but nourishment for my soul. Kindness is not bound by words. It is a language that can be spoken through a smile, a touch, or a simple gesture. It is the universal thread that connects us all as human beings. No matter where we come from or what we believe, kindness is something we can all understand and appreciate. I have seen firsthand the power of kindness to heal wounds and mend broken hearts. It has the ability to bridge divides and bring people together in times of need. Kindness is a force that can transform the world, one small act at a time. So let us all remember the power of kindness and the impact it can have on those around us. Let us be generous with our compassion and empathy, for kindness is the truest language of the heart. In a world that can sometimes feel cold and unforgiving, let us be the bearers of warmth and light through our words and actions.
