Sometimes, people can be a bit overwhelming with their kindness. This is not always a good thing. For instance, if you see a person who looks down and out, their hands shaking, and they ask or you offer them a cup of coffee, don’t overwhelm the person with a full cup. Why? Because they are shaking and could spill hot coffee over themselves and onto the floor. Give them a half cup. Being thoughtful sometimes means that we do good by half. Kindness is not meant to make us feel better. It is in service to the other person. Less can be more, or at least enough.
