Be merciful onto others

Sometimes you just need to forgive someone for their transgressions and give them another chance. I know you find it endearing to be shown kindness, but the true litmus test for humanity is not receiving mercy but rather showing it to others. What mercy actually means, one could wonder now. Having sympathy for someone who has committed a wrongdoing is the act of showing them clemency.

Our capacity for compassion is one of the traits that define and promote our humanity. You will not find it difficult to extend kindness to people when you have sympathy for them. It will also come naturally to you to provide mercy to others if you have a human heart. With deeds of goodness, you can win the battle against evil. To what extent are you changing the world when you follow in the footsteps of others? Your acts must demonstrate your uniqueness if you want to be considered different. One can opt to follow kindness even in situations where exacting retribution or passing judgment is justifiable.

The kindness you bestow onto someone now can end up speaking volumes about you later on. Similarly, the kindness you withhold from someone now could come back to haunt you later.
