Today's blog in the #BeTheRippleBlogs series is a lovely poem from Kirsten Buck, written with the #BeTheRipple kindness collective as the inspiration.

Kirsten is the Head of Research and Sustainability at PTHR Ltd., 
with a strategic role and focus on how the organisation's work impacts its clients and discipline whilst advancing their commitment to sustainable business.

Over to Kirsten:

Kindness

A short poem inspired by some good people doing some really kind and great things for #BeTheRipple.
Picture
Kindness is not just in words but also in actions,

It is about supporting, and always believing,

an unwavering love that is reliable and humble.

Kindness is saying ‘yes’ to listening and expecting nothing in return,

It is about giving the benefit of the doubt and seeing the good

yet being honest with complete candour when we need a guiding hand.

So why do I write this if kindness is not just in words?!

Because BeTheRipple shares, shows, supports, believes, listens and guides.

This community is Kind.
​
