What does it cost us to be kind?
Not a whole lot really, other than
not fostering offence, or the building up
of anger. Avoiding letting bitterness
take up residence and getting wrinkles in
the process. So, there you go,
unless you want to pay a lot of
cash for face creams and the like,
and vigorously put exhausting effort
into gloom-ridden things,
embrace the less expensive,
less taxing option
of choosing to just be kind,
not only in what you do
but in what goes on inside
