“No act of
kindness,
no matter
how small,
is ever wasted.”
Aesop
Since you are reading this blog post, I will assume that you are a kind person. You may not realize this even yourself, but if you think about the way you treat people, day in and day out, you will more than likely recognize a pattern of kindness toward others. When you treat others with kindness, you probably do so most often not because they are necessarily nice, but because you are! This is a good thing.
Poet Maya Angelou has special words for you. She said, “My wish for you is that you continue. Continue to be who you are, to astonish a mean world with your acts of kindness.”
I saw a poster recently which stated: “To act with kindness is never a random act; neither is it unintentional. Kindness always flows from self-awareness and empathy for others.”
Here’s the bottom line. If you have the opportunity to be kind to someone, just do it. You never know when someone might be struggling silently. There’s a chance that your act of kindness could be the highlight of their day. One kind word from you can make a positive difference in someone’s life.
Choose kindness… and watch the world around you change.
