I'm not sure if I could tell the difference—between just staring into space and thinking. We're usually thinking all the time, aren't we?

Staring into space might unintentionally have the opposite effect.

I think we underestimate the importance of kindness sometimes. We understand the power of just a little tiny bit of kindness. It could be the catalyst for something so important. Sometimes just a tiny little gesture or an acknowledgment can make all the difference in turning somebody's life around.
