Tia interviewed her Grandma to get her thoughts about kindness.
Some ways to show kindness in a friendship are to be there when your friends are feeling down. Always listen to your friends. Send them a card, a gift, or give them a phone call to say, "I value our friendship." Help them out whenever and wherever you can, sometimes it may be when they least expect it. One time a friend gave me money when I really needed it, but I had not told them I needed it.
In a friendship people should be considerate. We should listen more and speak less, smile often. Try to picture yourself in someone else's place. "Do unto others as you would have them do to you."
If people were kind all of the time, especially in friendship the thing that would be different is that there would be no fear of your deepest secret ever being told. When someone tells a secret that usually starts distrust and even verbal or physical fights.
I do think that kind people are respected, but not by the majority of people. I also think that in order to change those that disrespect kind people, we need to go the extra mile and show kindness to them even when they are mean or hurtful.

Tia, your grandmother is a wise woman! One of the most important lessons I've learned in my own life (and I'm old enough to be a grandpa) is something your grandmother said to you: "Try to picture yourself in someone else's place." If we can do that, we will have made a huge leap toward practicing kindness every day.
I also like her advice to show extra love and kindness toward those who are not kind to us. That's the hardest lesson of all, isn't it? But nothing makes our hearts grow faster.
Say hello to Ms. Harris for me. This is a great project!

I agree with tia"s grandmother because you should always at least try to cheer your friend up instead of standing around looking at them sufer .It doesn,t matter if you was the one that hurt there feelings,you should always help people out.Because if no one helped anyone at all there wouldn,t be any kindness.
Friendship is one of the best things that you can have.people need to treat people like they want to be treated.
I agree with you becouse I allways try to pick my friends up when they are down.
What they are talking about is that if you be kind people will respect you.

You do not need to be mean to any of your friends.Because they will be there when you need them.
