“Kindness … a language that the deaf can hear and the blind can see.” — Mark Twain (I saw this saying in a post by onlinewellnessnetwork.com)
I’ve heard it said that music is the universal language. While I agree that it is A universal language, I think kindness, compassion, and love, are universal languages too.

I think kindness is love in action.
I love that comment (no pun intended), Bill. I don’t know if you just coined it or not, but either way, it has just become one of my favorite quotes. Thank you!
Russ
thanks — as far as I know I just made it up
and you are welcome to it.
Thanks back to you. I hope you did just make it up. I love how languages live and evolve through the creative use of words and phrases.
Russ
yes, but it is really the young who make language live. Dead languages are spoken by brilliant scholars, but vibrant languages grow in school yards and sleepovers.
