"Kindness is the essence of greatness."
-Joseph B. Wirthlin
If you're kind to others, you're already a great person. Being polite and having manners shows that you are an amazing person. Being respectful to others and to yourself is very important. This shows who you truly are as a person. Doing random acts of kindness also makes you a good person. I'm going to give you an example of kindness. My friend brandon went to the store a few weeks ago and he saw a lady with her daughter, they were selling flowers outside the store. The flowers were a dollar. The lady tells him that she is trying to raise money to buy her daughter a wig, she had been diagnosed with cancer. The wig costs about $250 and she couldn't afford it. Brandon gave the lady $320, they were so happy. The little girl started crying of joy but the mother didn't want to accept that much money from him. He finally convinced her to accept it. It's so easy to be kind and to give if you're not selfish. People get so happy when they receive the help they need or when someone randomly compliments them. Little things make people very happy and if you don't do this how do you expect people to do it to you? You actually should never expect anything in return but a smile. Maybe ask them to pay it forward but never pay it back to you. If you want something in return, you won't succeed in this aspect. You'll only succeed if you do it to be kind and a great person to others.
