Kind > Nice.

Kindness is a conscious choice to act in a way that is virtuous. Niceness is a survival mechanism and the inverse to aggression. Niceness can either be an involuntary response to fear or a tactic of manipulation.

Involuntary niceness is a state of incongruity to ourselves and others. it causes resentment within ourselves towards ourselves and others. Things are left unsaid, wishes left unheard and opportunities left on the table. Niceness leaves us imprisoned mentally and virtually inanimate.

No need to be a jerk, just choose kindness. Its respectable and noble and doesn't have to take any BS either.

"Nice," as an adjective, is best when designated to inanimate objects, not ourselves. We deserve to be self-determined and to choose our temporal state of being, as opposed to being imprisoned by "nice" and lose out of opportunities.

Kindness is Superior because it is initiated by DECISION instead of reaction.
