An Original Haiku: Kindness
The group activitiy for the week is kindness, so let me kick off with a banner celebrating the theme for the week. Enjoy #HHG.
Difficult to give away;
It's always returned!
Haikus are a Japanese traditional poetry form which uses 17 morae to tell a story. In English the accepted format is 17 syllables in a 5-7-5 line structure.
The challenge is to express your thoughts with with a minimum of words, similarly to Earnest Hemingway's famous six word sentence.
Dust Rule:
I’ve changed my voting habits to take the dust threshold into consideration. All post and comment below 0,003SBD gets reduced to 0,000 SBD. I will not up-vote comments or posts where the potential exist for it to exceed this threshold; as it would count as a wasted vote; since my own vote is below this threshold.
I’ve been following the post of @thedarkhorse as the reason for my decision.
Here is a post by - explaining the issue.
Thanks @rlt47, for leaving us a message in each haiku, here we are all going to share our best ways to show kindness.

Yes! the banner says right Kindness is a big thing . a war can spread blood and jealousy whether the kindness spread love and affection. Kindness plays a big role to introduce us as a human. Otherwise there will be no difference between a violent wild animal and us.
@aaarif, you are very correct - As humans we decide how we react to adversity and adverse situations. It's a great thing when we decide to act with kindness.
