Kind

Eph. 4:32 (NKJV)

And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

Kindness according to Webster is archaic. I would have to agree. It seems that kindness is something that we no longer give much attention to today. Today we are all about exchange. I will scratch your back as long as you scratch mine. The verse goes on to talk about forgiveness. forgiveness is also one way. It cannot be exchanged. It is intended to be given regardless and if there is any exchange then it kind of nullifies the whole sentiment. We need to get back to showing kindness with no strings attached. Just as God showed us kindness and forgiveness by sending His Son to die in our stead.
