Disruptive compassion

Loved this post from Tumblr:

Don’t let the world fool you: consistent kindness is the most quietly powerful thing.

If you ever want to engage in villainy & undermine the social order: Be especially kind to the people society has rejected. Care about the ones the world would convince you don’t ‘deserve’ your kindness.

I genuinely mean this when I say to you: the ultimate act of rebellion is insisting on compassion and grace in a compassionless world.
