Old Saying

I heard this saying many times as a kid and have said it myself many, many times and I believe it. It has a great theory and gives great advice as well. "Kill your enemies with kindness" I have also used this method and it works! And it gives me kindness in my soul rather than the anger that I could build up inside me for letting the hate and evil take over. Have you ever heard this saying? Do you believe this saying? Have you ever used this method?

I've heard it, but I don't really practice it. It seems like too much energy to give to you enemies. I would prefer to avoid them as much as possible.

I think sometimes it may work but probably not often. It to be kind all the time no matter what but it can be tough with enemies.
