Even in this world of wickedness and so much evil, there are still a few kindness and I feel like I'm surrounded by the few. I can testify to so many act of kindness people has shown to me, so many.
I don't think I've encountered wickedness from anyone or maybe I choose not to see or mind them when they do. The good works of the kind people I know blind my eyes to the wickedness of people who try to make me unhappy, I don't care really.
Kindness is a virtue that every good human should possess not minding the level of kindness you can go, just be kind.
- You can be kind by giving alms/money to someone in need
- You can be kind in saying words or encouragement to someone that's down psychologically
- You can be kind in giving a helping hand to someone who's stressed out
- You can be kind in being a source of happiness to someone down in health to recover quickly
These and many others are ways you can show kindness to the people around you but mind you, you can't do all of it if you can't. Some people feel like they are not doing good if they don't have enough to give to someone in need, you can always have such opportunities again to show that kindness. People can't give what they don't have, one can't encourage another when in need of the encouragement more. Just find ways to show kindness that would be fulfilling to you.
I've met a lot of kind people in my life and asking me to share the most amazing act of kindness I've received would be like sharing one or two from a hundred. But there's one act of kindness I've received that has never left my memory and I'll share it here.
I remember very clearly years back when things weren't too good for my dad, I got a bag of new clothes from a friend. Maybe she noticed my worn out clothes and thought of sharing hers..... So I thought. She gave them to me with a smile and a sentence I still think were lies. "They don't fit anymore, I think they'll fit you better" Come on! We're both having same body size, how can they fit me better and not you.
Well, that was her best way to give them to me so I don't feel too shy to take them. I accepted wholeheartedly and was very grateful for her act of kindness towards me. That was the most amazing act of kindness I've received amidst so many others.
