Kindle Notes & Highlights
loving where you are from meant seeing all the wrongs that needed to be fixed and all the ways that it could be better.
That the difference between what we are and what we could be is the greatest waste.
Some people thought kindness was sentimental, soft. A bit naive, even. I knew this. But I also knew they were wrong. Kindness has a power and strength that almost nothing else on this planet has. I’d seen kindness do extraordinary things: I’d seen it give people hope; I’d seen it change minds and transform lives. I wasn’t afraid to say it aloud, and as soon as I did, I was sure: kindness. This would be my guiding principle no matter what lay ahead.
