because it is not a force. People often take anything that bends ,sways and melds with someone as a weakness

ask yourself why there is such a demand for trucks when the people who drive them dont even go off road. there is a lot of people who get off on power and there minds are so distorted that any one who is peaceful appears pathetic to them.

At the end of the day, you have to live with yourself. Live in a way that is true to yourself. Gentleness is not a weakness. It is actually a great strength to remain gentle in a world like ours. I respect that, and many others do as well. Don't let pressures make you what you are not.

Do not seek to be understood. Understand yourself and the rest will come.

I have always seen it as a strength. It's easy to be a *****, harder to rise above it.

Story of my Life , i don't why people take kindness as weakness. Just be who are don't care about what others think. Proverbs 16:32 Better a patient man than a warrior, a man who controls his temper than one who takes a city
