One of the reasons why kindness could be dangerous is because bad individuals takes advantage of them and thinks that their kindness is a sign of stupidity. Sad but true.
Exactly! I’ve notice my kindness is taken for granted, meanwhile I see how people who are quite narcissistic and materialistic are adored and respected my many!
Because the narcissists have low self esteem deep down and do what they can outwardly to make themselves liked, and draws others with low self esteem towards them.
Keep being an example of kindness. Those that disrespect are simply triggered. That is their issue. Seek Christ's validation and put on the armor of God. The ignorant will be the outside opinions that will not resonate, and that is OK. #staykind🕊
If most people don't respect you for being kind, then most people aren't worth getting to know. Sad but true. Once someone shows me their true colors, I have no use for them. You aren't someone I need to know or deal with. Choose and choose wisely who you let into your life.

This is filled with so much of man's wisdom, I hardly know where to start. A parent certainly has a right to make judgements about their childrens' welfare. For one adult to make such judgements about another adult is beyond patronizing- it is of the devil. Instead, the Christian should help when they can, and seek to understand rather than to judge. Did Jesus practice convenient boundaries when He went to the cross? We are not kind in order to mold or parent others. We are kind to glorify God. If people disrespect us because we are kind, so be it. It's another cross to bear. Prayers.

Being kind doesn't make you a doormat. Continue to be kind, but accept that many people may not be able to accept kindness fully and take advantage. Take that opportunity to call them out. To shine a light on their actions. To point out the disrespect and pray for them. It's our responsibility not just to be kind but to take the initiative to actually help others and that only happens when we aren't afraid to speak up against all negativity and be guides of light
@@michellejacksonshow Sometimes you're just not strong enough to stand up to everything. That's why it's helpful to have other people around you who will stick up for you.

There is so much brokenness in this world that when we cannot be like everyone else we have Jesus Christ that lives in us. We are unique and chosen not of things of this world. Not perfect but forgiven. Thank you God!🙌🙏🙏
I think wisdom is the most important trait mentioned. Wisdom prevents the misuse of kindness. And only allows kindness when you truly mean it or amen is truly needed
Absolutely! Following God's rule to "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" (Matthew 7:12) is the ultimate guide for living a life of love, kindness, and integrity. It simplifies our choices and brings clarity to how we interact with others. When we trust God to handle the rest, it frees us from the burdens of worry, resentment, or control. He sees the bigger picture and works all things for good (Romans 8:28). By leaving everything in His hands, we can walk in peace, knowing He’s got it all under control. It’s such a beautiful and freeing way to live!
Spirituality is creating your own reality by learning from your stepping stones and raising your vibration to be your best self and achieve your mission goals in this lifetime.
actually this makes alot sense to me... i kind of live like that whithout even being aware of the tradition. it just feels natural to me... i mean most religions are more about power and control then anything else ... they lost the essence ... think those 4 core principles are the essence and also the reason why its just healthy to choose to live by thees "values". ... ...being spiritual not religeous... doing the right thing for the greater good not just for personal gain... no need to live on your knees as long you dont put those close to you down. dont be so greedy. there would be enough for all of us... but yo i guess every herd got its black sheep but the european mind is more down whith the devil, the EGO ... false light blindet by there beauty lol. ..who are the real Savages? not everything that shines is gold... the devil is a liar. no matter which shade of brown or whatever... positiv giving or Negative taking... balance just some thoughts and thnx for providing these infos.

In a predominantly narcissistic world we as God's children are called to be His witnesses. But He knew exactly what He asked of us and gave us a lot of advice to do it accordingly but not to our detriment, see Matthew 10:16 "I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves."
Beautifully said! Matthew 10:16 is a powerful reminder of our calling as believers. God understands the challenges we face in a world where selfishness often prevails. His advice to be "shrewd as snakes and innocent as doves" is a perfect balance-He calls us to be wise, discerning, and cautious while maintaining our integrity, kindness, and purity. By relying on His guidance, we can navigate this world without losing ourselves or compromising our faith. Stay strong and keep shining His light!
Sometimes kindness is a kind of generosity which helps people to despise attacks made upon themselves. For only they know that this kind of meekness is such strength that never bends
I follow a simple rule: true friendship is very rare, but we a tricked to think it's everywhere. Apply the " loyalty" test: 1. If the the loyalty only exists within a transactional or conditional " friendship " then it's not a friendship. It's a relationship based upon pragmatism and context. 2. If a person is loyal with no strings attached, it's a genuine friendship. All those " friends" in work are empty encounters which fill the working day. The banter, the endless discussions about what they have or where they will be doing is just inane drivel. Of course friendships of this kind can transcend the working environment, but it's rare.
Ive realized, its good to be kind but not a people pleaser. I gave enabled a friend to do things she should stop. I will try to discern the difference better.
Kindness is a critical key to learning about love. It’s something all the politicians in the world should learn. So being a bully is okay in today’s society? I choose to be kind. And I will stay away from the people who are not. That’s why I live in the mountains all alone.
Very wise words and valuable advice, I blame myself for disrespect because I always give help kindness and genuine help feeling and love to what I do and sometimes that turns to abuse expectations and being taken for granted which can defeat my purpose

I give thanksgiving praise and appreciation unto Our Father God and Creator And His Only Begotten Son Christ Jesus And The HOLY SPIRIT As THE TRINITY AMEN 🙏💖🌍✔️
Seems that all is lost when simple kindness is something we have to guard like our lives depends on it . Days grow short my friend. Rejoice in Grace . You are loved .
Be kind to yourself first ❤ a lot of times we confuse kindness with being pleasant and doing what we think others expect from us just in order to be accepted and loved. Fear of rejection and abandonment is often the root of this maybe stems from childhood. A lot of children only get conditional love if they do as there told.
I witnessed a true act of kindness by an ER doctor. I was in ER for a family member because of a catastrophic event and while we were waiting for the doctor to come back I overheard a conversation that I couldn't help hearing since there was only a curtain dividing our space from another space. From what I could gather the patient was very young around 19 years old and was complaining of pain and requesting pain medication. The doctor listened and then said words to the effect that he couldn't prescribe or give him any more pain medication because this was the 3rd time he was in this month and he needed to go see his PCP. The patient said he didn't have one and begged for the pain meds. Eventually it came out the patient had a street-drug abuse problem. My point to this story, which I will never forget, is true kindness does not enable delusion only to avoid pain. Of course, kind people do not want to see anyone in pain. Then there's the superficial kindness when you think you're being kind by taking a friend out to lunch for their birthday and when your birthday comes around they can't even acknowledge it. My point is true kindness shouldn't cause the giver of kindness any pain. Amirite? Yeah, I'm right.
A feature of inner strength is choosing is when and who you offer and share your kindness with. My opinion on somebody who offers it at the wrong time to the wrong person triggers my empathy for the dysfunction that said person is going to receive. If that triggers disrespect with you over empathy that says a lot about your inner strength.
I tried to walk as I thought Jesus wanted me to. I wish I had heard this 60 years ago. My belief put me into the arms of a narcissist for 23 years. It took 4 times being cheated on, being thrown out with my boys 3 times and my complete lost of self respect. It has taken over a year to even entertain the thought that I am not worthless. I have come a long way. I only cry every morning and every night instead of all day. I am not throwing up everyday only 2 or three times a week. I have started to spend time with people instead of staying in my room. Instead of being scared to stand up for myself , I am learning how to set boundaries. This road has been hard, but everyday I step closer to remembering who I was before the abuse. I so completely understand and have lived what this video is saying. For now on before I do anything I will have to ask myself is what I’m going to do what I want to do. This video was the rock that finally fell on my brain and woke it up. I will no longer do things out of guilt, obligation or fear of losing someone.
Not having better knowledge of scripture really gets us in trouble sometimes. When God said to love your enemies and pray for them, that never meant allow yourself to be abused and allow your children to witness abuse and be subjected to it. After all, allowing your children to witness abuse in the home IS ABUSE to them too, sadly. You thought Jesus wanted you to stay in this situation? What made you think Jesus wanted you and your family to be abused and live in turmoil day in and day out?
You're absolutely right. Some people, unfortunately, don’t appreciate kindness and take it for granted because they’re focused on their own motives or sense of control. It’s important to recognize such behaviors and set healthy boundaries to protect your peace. Surround yourself with those who truly value and respect you for who you are.
Sometimes when people notice you are too kind and too giving they shame you for not being even more giving. Sometimes they shame you for not allowing them to take advantage. I see kind people get walked all over. Myself included. Painful. Painful. Excruciating lessons learned.
The misunderstanding of others is their task. It is my task to have concern for their concerns and see them as my allies, and to have unconditional confidence and unconditional acceptance in them, regardless of their flaws or actions, just as I give to myself.
❤😂 Sometimes it is how it seems: personally I work in the Law and usually very gentle and giving. My inner and professional aim is to EDUCATE IN THE RESPECT OF LAW OF STATE AND LORD. I am VERY PATIENT, but in the end never tolerate DISRESPECT of laws and FRIENDSHIP. Me too, I can turn tough as a derpent . Matthew 10,16. sa
Being kind and having others view that in an errant context is not the problem of the person offering kindness. This is a huge problem in and of society as a whole. And also why, an increasing amount of people are no longer nice to each other; sociopathic behavior and others taking advantage and not repaying it.
However be it whatever goes around comes around. Trust God and do without expectations. Thanks for sharing a great message sent around the world where we all become one in Christ AMEN 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻
When people show you who they are believe them. God reveals these people to you to know who are your confidants, comrades and constituents. It is you, or then decides who stays and who doesn't. Life is all about preview, trial period and then subscription. Nothing is free. Everything comes with a price. Not just monetarily, rather time,effort, emotional and mental energy.
Kindness as a Fruit will often be challenged. People will assume your a people pleaser or weak. In my life the enemy tried his best to rid me of that Fruit. When you learn the power of it in you your lifes journey will be holding on to the gift after repeated assignments to destroy what the Lord has put in you. I wrestled with hardness and recognize now that Gift from God, the Fruit of kindness also needs toughness to go along side it and bad experiences when worked out with God will shield you from constantly being told your too kind and should change.
I really am at the point that my head keeps telling me: if my kindness keeps resulting in disrespect from others then I dont want to live in a world like this anymore
@@kimchu1891 You are an amazing person and the goodness that you put out there is being returned through other people and Our Creator in ways that we never expect. Do for others only if YOU want to do for them and don't expect them to return the deed. This will prevent you from feeling hurt and disappointed my friend. People are who they are and most are not kind like you. They haven't matured, spiritually, to your level but, hopefully your kindness will teach them something positive. Do yourself a favor and continue to be you and don't allow others negative behavior to change you. Straighten your crown, continue to be true to yourself by not allowing this evil and ungrateful world to rob you of your special gifts.

Perhaps they were a narcissist? That's one thing I've learnt through the years. They see kindness as a weakness, a stupidity, and it is to be used for self benefit.
Kindness in good will with boundaries is respected. Kindness for personal gain ie - honey traps are vile and exploitative. That's why nice guys finish last; playing the easy game with no skin means your likelihood of cheating or selling someone out is very strong.
Those who do not respect you and do not appreciate your kindness, do not deserve your attention.

Being kind doesn't make you a doormat. Continue to be kind, but accept that many people may not be able to accept kindness fully and take advantage. Take that opportunity to call them out. To shine a light on their actions. To point out the disrespect and pray for them. It's our responsibility not just to be kind but to take the initiative to actually help others and that only happens when we aren't afraid to speak up against all negativity and be guides of light
Sad, to allow negativity to change you. That's how evil prevails and spreads.
@@michellejacksonshow Sometimes you're just not strong enough to stand up to everything. That's why it's helpful to have other people around you who will stick up for you.
My kindness is in the will of Gods goodness to me. Gods grace is sufficient for me . And his Mercy on my life is great love for me . There is so much brokenness in this world that when we cannot be like everyone else we have Jesus Christ that lives in us. We are unique and chosen not of things of this world. Not perfect but forgiven. Thank you God!🙌🙏🙏
I think wisdom is the most important trait mentioned. Wisdom prevents the misuse of kindness. And only allows kindness when you truly mean it or amen is truly needed
Most welcome
It’s is human nature to take more than is being offered
The best rule is to follow Gods rule. Treat others as you would like to be treated. Leave everything else in Gods hands. 🙏
Absolutely! Following God's rule to "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" (Matthew 7:12) is the ultimate guide for living a life of love, kindness, and integrity. It simplifies our choices and brings clarity to how we interact with others.
When we trust God to handle the rest, it frees us from the burdens of worry, resentment, or control. He sees the bigger picture and works all things for good (Romans 8:28). By leaving everything in His hands, we can walk in peace, knowing He’s got it all under control. It’s such a beautiful and freeing way to live!
@@wisdomofwinns Amen.
Exactly
Spirituality is creating your own reality by learning from your stepping stones and raising your vibration to be your best self and achieve your mission goals in this lifetime.
actually this makes alot sense to me... i kind of live like that whithout even being aware of the tradition. it just feels natural to me... i mean most religions are more about power and control then anything else ... they lost the essence ... think those 4 core principles are the essence and also the reason why its just healthy to choose to live by thees
"values". ...
...being spiritual not religeous... doing
the right thing for the greater good not just for personal gain... no need to live on your knees as long you dont put those close to you down. dont be so greedy. there would be enough for all of us... but yo i guess every herd got its black sheep but the european mind is more down whith the devil, the EGO ... false light blindet by there beauty lol.
..who are the real
Savages? not everything that shines is gold... the devil is a liar. no matter which shade of brown or whatever... positiv giving or Negative taking...
balance just some thoughts and thnx for providing these infos. PEACE out & greetings from Germany
Please can someone recommend any spiritual therapist?
Is she on TikTok?
Does she take spiritual consultations?
The greatest step to spiritually is acknowledging that God exists. We wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for God’s love.
Oftentimes, people misconstrued kindness as weakness and their inability to make sound judgment and decisions about their actions. 😮❤

In a predominantly narcissistic world we as God's children are called to be His witnesses. But He knew exactly what He asked of us and gave us a lot of advice to do it accordingly but not to our detriment, see Matthew 10:16
"I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves."
Beautifully said! Matthew 10:16 is a powerful reminder of our calling as believers. God understands the challenges we face in a world where selfishness often prevails. His advice to be "shrewd as snakes and innocent as doves" is a perfect balance-He calls us to be wise, discerning, and cautious while maintaining our integrity, kindness, and purity. By relying on His guidance, we can navigate this world without losing ourselves or compromising our faith. Stay strong and keep shining His light!
@@wisdomofwinns
Amen!
I leave the rest to our heavenly Father 🙇🏽♀️
I was told this about myself, I was shocked... but I now understand
Sometimes kindness is a kind of generosity which helps people to despise attacks made upon themselves. For only they know that this kind of meekness is such strength that never bends
Amen this is empowering ❤
Truth Be Told🧐😇❣️
I will always be kind giving onto others as I would like done on to me ❣️
Just make sure that you pick the right "others."
I used to be kind and giving and supportive. Now I HERMIT.
🙏🏼😔
I get that…I’ve given up on most people.
Kindness is the opposite of narcissism and sociopathy.
I follow a simple rule: true friendship is very rare, but we a tricked to think it's everywhere. Apply the " loyalty" test:
1. If the the loyalty only exists within a transactional or conditional " friendship " then it's not a friendship. It's a relationship based upon pragmatism and context.
2. If a person is loyal with no strings attached, it's a genuine friendship.
All those " friends" in work are empty encounters which fill the working day. The banter, the endless discussions about what they have or where they will be doing is just inane drivel. Of course friendships of this kind can transcend the working environment, but it's rare.
Ive realized, its good to be kind but not a people pleaser. I gave enabled a friend to do things she should stop. I will try to discern the difference better.
Thank you!
Freewill is essential as it is unfettered by self righteousness.
Kindness is a critical key to learning about love. It’s something all the politicians in the world should learn. So being a bully is okay in today’s society? I choose to be kind. And I will stay away from the people who are not. That’s why I live in the mountains all alone.
Soooo much kindness is sadly given by the most abused!
Very wise words and valuable advice, I blame myself for disrespect because I always give help kindness and genuine help feeling and love to what I do and sometimes that turns to abuse expectations and being taken for granted which can defeat my purpose
Yes I have noticed. I lacked boundaries, people accepted it, but it did not give in return that I wanted to be liked, but seldom got it.
Kindness is often met with jealousy, envy followed by hatred because you’re in a better position to the person you’re helping.
This is true. 😰
wow, you nailed it!
Sometimes people label you what you are NOT!
Amen 🙏 That sounds so timely amidst my individual private and personal spiritual journey. And surrending unto God's heavenly aligning Will Timeline and Purpose for the glory of all Creation and Humanity. I gained a individual spiritual amazing amount of spiritual TRUTHS. That guides ALL that,s necessary to restore my individual spiritual journey. I pray and allow my choices and free will to stay steadfast amidst my personal and private spiritual relationship and journey. I give thanksgiving praise and appreciation unto Our Father God and Creator And His Only Begotten Son Christ Jesus And The HOLY SPIRIT As THE TRINITY AMEN 🙏💖🌍✔️
GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS
It pays nothing to be kind but it seems to be easier for some people to be cruel. I’m getting to the stage where I can’t do it anymore.
Seems that all is lost when simple kindness is something we have to guard like our lives depends on it .
Days grow short my friend.
Rejoice in Grace .
You are loved .
❤️❤️❤️
Be kind to yourself first ❤ a lot of times we confuse kindness with being pleasant and doing what we think others expect from us just in order to be accepted and loved. Fear of rejection and abandonment is often the root of this maybe stems from childhood. A lot of children only get conditional love if they do as there told.
I witnessed a true act of kindness by an ER doctor. I was in ER for a family member because of a catastrophic event and while we were waiting for the doctor to come back I overheard a conversation that I couldn't help hearing since there was only a curtain dividing our space from another space. From what I could gather the patient was very young around 19 years old and was complaining of pain and requesting pain medication. The doctor listened and then said words to the effect that he couldn't prescribe or give him any more pain medication because this was the 3rd time he was in this month and he needed to go see his PCP. The patient said he didn't have one and begged for the pain meds. Eventually it came out the patient had a street-drug abuse problem. My point to this story, which I will never forget, is true kindness does not enable delusion only to avoid pain. Of course, kind people do not want to see anyone in pain. Then there's the superficial kindness when you think you're being kind by taking a friend out to lunch for their birthday and when your birthday comes around they can't even acknowledge it. My point is true kindness shouldn't cause the giver of kindness any pain. Amirite? Yeah, I'm right.
♥️♥️♥️♥️
Sometimes virtue does have to be its own reward.
A feature of inner strength is choosing is when and who you offer and share your kindness with. My opinion on somebody who offers it at the wrong time to the wrong person triggers my empathy for the dysfunction that said person is going to receive. If that triggers disrespect with you over empathy that says a lot about your inner strength.
Thank you for making these profound lessons. This video truly opened my eyes. It's so rich with wisdom I'd never considered before. Amen
I tried to walk as I thought Jesus wanted me to. I wish I had heard this 60 years ago. My belief put me into the arms of a narcissist for 23 years. It took 4 times being cheated on, being thrown out with my boys 3 times and my complete lost of self respect. It has taken over a year to even entertain the thought that I am not worthless.
I have come a long way. I only cry every morning and every night instead of all day. I am not throwing up everyday only 2 or three times a week. I have started to spend time with people instead of staying in my room. Instead of being scared to stand up for myself , I am learning how to set boundaries. This road has been hard, but everyday I step closer to remembering who I was before the abuse.
I so completely understand and have lived what this video is saying. For now on before I do anything I will have to ask myself is what I’m going to do what I want to do. This video was the rock that finally fell on my brain and woke it up. I will no longer do things out of guilt, obligation or fear of losing someone.
Maybe God sent you the life you needed to learn these lessons? I'm glad you got there.
@ lol. 62 years later.
Not having better knowledge of scripture really gets us in trouble sometimes. When God said to love your enemies and pray for them, that never meant allow yourself to be abused and allow your children to witness abuse and be subjected to it. After all, allowing your children to witness abuse in the home IS ABUSE to them too, sadly. You thought Jesus wanted you to stay in this situation? What made you think Jesus wanted you and your family to be abused and live in turmoil day in and day out?
@ my boys never saw it. It was all done very quietly. Like I said, I took the whole when someone wants you jacket give them your shirt thing.
@@amyb7823 so tell me where Jesus talks about how to handle abuse.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you too! May this festive season bring joy, peace, and success into your life. Stay blessed!
@@tjasagustin3342 same too you.
Some people just take people for granted anyway no matter what because they don't get a ride out of others or feel control
You're absolutely right. Some people, unfortunately, don’t appreciate kindness and take it for granted because they’re focused on their own motives or sense of control. It’s important to recognize such behaviors and set healthy boundaries to protect your peace. Surround yourself with those who truly value and respect you for who you are.
The benefit of being kind is so evident that even bad people become virtuous for the sake of profit. L. Vovenarg.
Sometimes when people notice you are too kind and too giving they shame you for not being even more giving. Sometimes they shame you for not allowing them to take advantage. I see kind people get walked all over. Myself included. Painful. Painful. Excruciating lessons learned.
May God be pleased with you
Yes absolutely. Ive experienced this recently
Thank you my Beautiful Lord for being as you are ... Perfectly Helpful! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Glad it was helpful!
The misunderstanding of others is their task. It is my task to have concern for their concerns and see them as my allies, and to have unconditional confidence and unconditional acceptance in them, regardless of their flaws or actions, just as I give to myself.
❤😂 Sometimes it is how it seems: personally I work in the Law and usually very gentle and giving. My inner and professional aim is to EDUCATE IN THE RESPECT OF LAW OF STATE AND LORD. I am VERY PATIENT, but in the end never tolerate DISRESPECT of laws and FRIENDSHIP. Me too, I can turn tough as a derpent . Matthew 10,16. sa
This has been me for sure! Been a battle getting out of this old mucky rut!
I'll keep on being kind, being myself.
That is fruit of Spirit!!
That is Love!!
Thanks
Being kind and having others view that in an errant context is not the problem of the person offering kindness. This is a huge problem in and of society as a whole. And also why, an increasing amount of people are no longer nice to each other; sociopathic behavior and others taking advantage and not repaying it.
However be it whatever goes around comes around.
Trust God and do without expectations.
Thanks for sharing a great message sent around the world where we all become one in Christ
AMEN 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻
When people show you who they are believe them.
God reveals these people to you to know who are your confidants, comrades and constituents.
It is you, or then decides who stays and who doesn't.
Life is all about preview, trial period and then subscription.
Nothing is free. Everything comes with a price.
Not just monetarily, rather time,effort, emotional and mental energy.
Kindness as a Fruit will often be challenged. People will assume your a people pleaser or weak. In my life the enemy tried his best to rid me of that Fruit. When you learn the power of it in you your lifes journey will be holding on to the gift after repeated assignments to destroy what the Lord has put in you. I wrestled with hardness and recognize now that Gift from God, the Fruit of kindness also needs toughness to go along side it and bad experiences when worked out with God will shield you from constantly being told your too kind and should change.
I really am at the point that my head keeps telling me: if my kindness keeps resulting in disrespect from others then I dont want to live in a world like this anymore
@@kimchu1891 You are an amazing person and the goodness that you put out there is being returned through other people and Our Creator in ways that we never expect. Do for others only if YOU want to do for them and don't expect them to return the deed. This will prevent you from feeling hurt and disappointed my friend. People are who they are and most are not kind like you. They haven't matured, spiritually, to your level but, hopefully your kindness will teach them something positive. Do yourself a favor and continue to be you and don't allow others negative behavior to change you. Straighten your crown, continue to be true to yourself by not allowing this evil and ungrateful world to rob you of your special gifts. When people don't appreciate you, rotate them to the rear of your line of priority and continue doing good. You'll be just fine!!! Hugs to you!!! 🩷🩷🩷
Thank you for this. Just what I needed!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your generous support through Super Thanks! It truly means a lot to me, and it motivates me to keep creating content for amazing viewers like you. Your kindness is greatly appreciated!
"Have you ever noticed..." YES!!!!!
This is so true.because this was me.

Loving but firm,Dr.Spock says
True. You can only be kind and generous when you are strong internally backed up by God.
God help you
Amen
To some, in my experience, “Kindness” seems an sign that they others can easily take advantage of you! Never again, let those who are KIND, allow it!
May God be pleased with you
You should act as you like and feel. If someone takes it for granted can always get a silent treatment.
God help you
Perhaps they were a narcissist?
That's one thing I've learnt through the years.
They see kindness as a weakness, a stupidity, and it is to be used for self benefit.
♥️♥️♥️
They to will reap!
That's true I'm not going to enable anyone for them to do what they wish I do it from the heart and God says it the right thing to do
Kindness in good will with boundaries is respected. Kindness for personal gain ie - honey traps are vile and exploitative. That's why nice guys finish last; playing the easy game with no skin means your likelihood of cheating or selling someone out is very strong.
Solid content. Thank you.
Welcome
Another excellent video❤
Thank you for the knowledge on how to win..truly endeed..though my heart is really so soft😔..this will serve as a reminder. Thank you!
You are so welcome
Thank you
Yes agree sad and a tough lesson. It’s not easy to keep those energy inside but no option to have a peaceful life 😏
My kindness is a part of the picture not the whole puzzle
Beautifully said! Kindness is just one piece, but it makes the whole puzzle shine brighter
Be kind. Be firm. Be harsh.
The goal is to balance these.
💯% shows they have no compassion
