Kind Acts
I remember a time
when things went downhill for me. It was
in third year high school when my grades went down and I was grounded at a time
when a time when there was something important that I wanted to do. Worse still, someone I liked had feelings for
someone else. It was during that sad
moment that someone took the time console me and cheered me up. That simple act of kindness helped me through
the times and proved to me that a little kindness goes a long way.
A kind act can have a powerful and inspiring effect on
people down on their luck. Many times we
hear stories of people who stumbled then rose out of the ashes. This was due to acts of kindness such as
buying someone a meal when they are hungry or helping them pack their
belongings or simply being there in times of sorrow and tragedy as a shoulder
to lean on. Simple gestures like that give hope when we feel that there is
none. We realize that people care and
are there when we need them.
It doesn’t have to be great deed. Just a simple gesture with the purest of
intentions can work wonders for those in despair. Their feel that that they are not alone and
that there is always someone who cares and that is food for the hungry
soul. A little kindness goes a long way
and many people who felt now lead better lives today.
