It's only when somebody who's around your age dies that it hits you how important it is to be kind and compassionate and empathetic to people around you.
I cannot stress enough at this point what a huge difference a little kindness can make.
You don't even have to say you're "there" for somebody to be nice. Instead, don't talk trash about somebody, don't gossip unnecessarily, before you even start to think ill of somebody, stop yourself and check your behavior.
Because when you start to eliminate negativity from yourself, you'll start to maybe inspire other people to do so. And if you already have such people around, try and be like them.
It is so so important to be nice to each other. Start with yourself there. Start with cutting off unnecessary negativity.
