For the Gentle Ones

Gentle people quote

“For the Gentle Ones: if you are the kind of person who cries at the end of books, who stops to help a wounded bird, who feels too much in a world that feels too little, please don’t change. The world has enough hard hearts, it needs more of yours.”

There’s something quietly powerful about people who feel everything so deeply. The ones who tear up at the end of a story, who pause their day to help a bird with a broken wing, who absorb the world’s sadness like it’s their own.

In a world that often rushes to be tougher, louder, or more detached, these gentle souls might feel out of place — but they are exactly what this world needs more of.

Kindness, softness, and deep empathy are not weaknesses. They are rare strengths. If you’re one of them, don’t change. The world is better because you exist.
