Kindness is the quality of being considerate, friendly, and generous. We are friendly to someone and expect them to be the same to us. We are considerate thinking that it will come back to us.    We all do something to get something in return. We help someone to make it easier for them, but in return somehow we feel good about ourselves when we are in the act.    Acts of kindness might not have motives but they do motivate you and the one you perform that act towards.
