Kindness and empathy are very important in the world because they make the world a better place. When we treat others with kindness, we make a difference in the world where people feel appreciated and truly heard. Empathy lets everyone step in someone else’s shoes, so that they can truthfully comprehend their emotions and what they are going through. When some people focus on empathy, they create stronger relationships and make pathways of comprehension between other people. Kindness and empathy also have a great impact on people’s health and happiness. When people show kindness to others, it not only shows happiness in their lives, but it also elevates their souls. When people show acts of kindness they feel really good about themselves, they feel like they made a difference in someone else’s lives or made someone else’s day be much better than how it was, which makes them feel proud about themselves for showing acts of kindness towards others. Moreover, empathy lets people develop a profound feeling of compassion and comprehension with others, which results in a powerful relationship with each other and a bigger feeling of accomplishment in everybody’s lives.
