Kindness is…

Schools used to evaluate its students by using four levels of grades, 1:優(excellent), 2:良(good), 3:可(acceptable), 4:不可(not acceptable).
This Chinese character, 優(Yu) which is the highest score of all, has two different meanings. One of them is “superior” the other is ”gentle and kind”.
It might be thought of the people who are kind to others as superior.
Thinking of others each other will lead person to become superior as a human being.

Reading is fun!
I often see many people using smart phones in the subway and train. In the past people used to read the newspapers and books, however, nowadays not as many people read the book as before.
Reading books will give you a depth in your life. Not only gaining knowledge from them but also will make you look more attractive adding humanities on you.

Good point of reading
