Gifts of kindness go a long way. They benefit both the one who offers and the one who receives, and all who witness.

Richard Gere went "undercover" for a movie he is acting in, "Time Out of Mind." Unrecognized in schmatte and unshaven, he was still recognizable as Gere... but nobody paid any attention to him... at all.

Small gifts of kindness... imagine the change in the world if everyone looked for ways to be kind.

I love that the Dalai Lama professes that "My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness." /// "Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible."

DEFINITION of this 2-syllable noun:

Slang. an old ragged garment; tattered article of clothing.
Slang. any garment.
