Please do not assume that just because a person is kind and quiet that they are not angry or troubled by events. Some people fight for change through debating and protests and strong, dominant attitudes which is fine. Everyone is different in how they attempt to change the world.

That includes those who try to persuade others into changing their thinking by simply being kind and listening to their views and replying in simple conversation. People HAVE changed things by being kind, it is not a weakness and is not to be underestimated when trying to change the world.

Attacking those with the same view points as you simply because they “aren’t loud enough” or “aren’t angry enough” about it is taking ten steps backwards, taking focus away from the common goal you share with that person.

Do not assume that because a person is soft spoken that their passion and drive for the things that matter are nonexistent.
