Is your kindness a gift, or is it a shield? Alan Watts explores the profound paradox of human goodness, revealing how the very trait we are taught to cherish most can become a cage of our own making. When kindness is rooted in the fear of being disliked or the ego’s hunger for a 'holy' reputation, it ceases to be a virtue and becomes a form of self-betrayal.
In this insightful reflection, Watts challenges us to look beneath our 'agreeable' masks. Are we smoothing over conflicts because we are compassionate, or because we are terrified of the ripples? True kindness flows from an overflow of the heart, not from a trembling need for approval. To be kind without being honest is to lose oneself in the service of others' expectations. Learn to distinguish between the kindness of strength and the kindness of fear.
