"Being Kind Not in some great deed of heroism; not in some great speech or act that may be pointed to with pride-but rather in the little kindnesses from day to day ..." ~ Edgar Cayce

We may not all become great spiritual leaders like St. Francis or Gandhi, but we can all do something to help make this world a more spiritual place.  One of the simplest things to do is to be kind and helpful to others.  As Edgar Cayce points out, it doesn't have to be in some huge, heroic way, just simple everyday kindness.  And not just to friends and relatives, but kindness to all.  And when we are kind and helpful to others, they will be kind and helpful to us.  Not everyone perhaps, but enough.  And the kindness and helpfulness will help us progress in our quest for spiritual enlightenment.  Of course, it takes more than being kind to develop your spiritual potential, but it's a good start.
