The Difference Between Nice & Kind
Heartfulness eMagazine
|July 2022
DIVYA CHOWDHARY tells us how her young niece helped her understand the difference between being nice and being kind. That distinction has been pivotal in her own application of kindness.
One of the first things my niece learned to say was, “Be nice.” Ironically, she never said it nicely. It would come as a strict reprimand to all of us. My sister-in-law originally taught her these words because she didn’t want her saying “Stop” to everything. So, when my niece felt that others were not being nice, she would yell, “Be nice!”
