Kindness Is My Religion

My mum always used to say 'kindness is my religion'. I never really understood what she meant until the past few years.
It’s not just about being polite or friendly. it’s in the small, quiet things she does without expecting anything back. The way she offers help, listens or simply chooses to see the good in people.
Watching her live like that has shaped who I am more than I ever realised.
I do believe now, that kindness can be a kind of faith, a belief that goodness matters, and that it can spread to others in ways we don’t even notice.
