Kindness is a universal value which leads mankind to a good life. For Viet Nam, kindness and loving for others have been manifested since 15 ancient tribes unified as a sole country named Van Lang. It is the value of Vietnamese people formed in thousands of years fighting over natural disasters, enemies to create community bonds and mutual protection. Scientific evidence shows that kindness was mentioned by Confucians from ancient times and is still valued in many parts of the world.
1. Introduction
I.1. Kindness is a universal value which leads mankind to a good life. For Viet Nam, kindness and loving for others have been manifested since 15 ancient tribes unified as a sole country named Van Lang. It is the value of Vietnamese people formed in thousands of years fighting over natural disasters, enemies to create community bonds and mutual protection. Scientific evidence shows that kindness was mentioned by Confucians from ancient times and is still valued in many parts of the world. Although the understanding of kindness is different from the East and the West but recently the two parts of the world are getting closer in this: kindness is human’s nature of doing good things; it can be educated. Kindness is not tangible and general but manifested in good deeds and conscientious behaviors to others [1-6]. Today, as science and technology grow and the world becomes flatter, humanity is put in a civilization run by technologies. Therefore the concern and educating of humanity qualities are more important than ever. Almost all countries are aiming to train their young generations that meet present and future social demands. Therefore, the "consciousness of freedom", "kindness", and “creative spirit" are of great interest as F. Rabelais once said, "Knowledge without conscience is nothing but the ruin of the soul" [[1]; p.7].
