Kindness in writing is free….Today’s Quote of the Day

Today’s Quote of the Day

"Kindness in writing is free….yet priceless in value."

– Barbara Ling

Meaning…

Your kindness in your writing can cause others to find their own wings.

And you can take that to the bank.

I thought of this quote this morning when I was visiting Joanna’s superb blog Confident Writing.  The post that inspired it was:

One Line on Writing and Confidence

She writes:

I came across this quote on Twitter the other day.

Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love~LaoTzu

It made me think in a different way about confidence and writing. About how much kindness is an essential part of the mix.

Kindness in words creates confidence in others.

Kindness in words creates confidence in your self….MORE….

Good words!  And I started to think what kindness and writing meant to me….and that’s what I came up with.

How ’bout you?

Enjoy,
