April 27--Justice & Kindness Interlinked

Recompense injury with justice, and recompense kindness with kindness. 
--Confucius

    When someone is rude or nasty with me, I remind myself that I should not "stoop to their level." Being unkind in return does no good, and usually leaves me needing to make amends. We know from thousands of years of history that injury only escalates into more violence. We also know that kindness encourages more of itself. It's just that injury and violence get more publicity. 
    Let's take the kindness and justice route,
