BESIDE THE DOORS
Why be kind?
Not a command. A question.
Every door on this site ends on the same line.
Don’t be cruel.
Be kind.
Here is why, in one breath. There is one awareness. It shows up as many windows. You are one. So is the person in front of you. The one being harmed is the one doing the harming, experienced from a different perspective. So cruelty closes the room on both sides. Kindness keeps it open on both sides. Not a rule. A count.
The whole answer has its own house.
