Being kind IS right -- right?

I believe it is more important to be kind. I don't have to be right about everything, even if I am right, I don't feel like I have to "make" another person agree with me.
I would much rather keep a friend then lose one by trying to be right all the time. As long as what ever the situation is doesn't cause harm to anyone.

kind. If you believe you are right, then that is well and good. But don't try to prove it because it just makes you look like a jerk. Be kind above all because you have no idea what a person is going through and what kind of battles they are facing.

In my life, both are extremely important... If forced to choose, being right is more important... What good is it being kind if you are being kind for the wrong reasons?? So, I strive to be kind, but I also strive to be right and correct - and sometimes, being right comes at the detriment of kindness...

Kindness is always right. Besides, God is always right and kind, but I only have the ability to always be kind so... I'll leave the being right to God and try to learn how to be more kind.

Being kind. As time goes on I'm beginning to think that being right is worth just about nothing (except maybe at the racetrack.)

Sorry Midge, but the two can't be separated, since both are required by God ... Matthew 6:24No man can serve two masters: God is not the author of confusion ... you can't be kind until you clothed yourself completely in the righteousness of God

How about kindly right?
I don't think that they are exclusive, but I do think that people lose sight of the fact that they are not exclusive (and I indict myself with that statement...)
Soli Deo Gloria
