When I thought of kindness and initiative I immediately thought of the Good Samaritan. A man is robbed and beat up and then left at the side of the street to die. A priest came by but didn't even help him. Then a Levite came by and didn't even give him the time of day. Finally a Samaritan came by. Nobody liked them. But this man took the initiative to help the man and bandaged him up and sent him to a hotel. That is true kindness, to help somebody even if they are your supposed enemy. But what if the person you are helping hurts you?
What if the man was pretending to be robbed and beat up?…
