How to use "Benevolent" in context?
What is benevolence?
Benevolence is a disposition characterized by feelings of goodwill and affection for others. It is often seen as a moral quality, and is often contrasted with harmful intent. The dictionary definition traces back to the Latin benevolens, meaning "kindhearted," or "friendly." Benevolence is often viewed as a requisite component of moral character, and is thought to be behind many charitable endeavours. It is however not confined to acts of charity- some people who are benevolent may simply enjoy spending time with others, or may simply enjoy spending time helping others.
