Random Acts of Kindness! They are not as random as you think.
October 6, 2017
Over the past few months I have begun to believe that acts of kindness are going extinct, but then as I let that thought settle in I am reminded that acts of kindness are abundant and live strongly around us. What I have done is let myself fall into headlines on the news, post on social media and wild rumors and that fly like the breeze!
When I let my eyes and ears open, I see and hear acts of kindness around all the time. Some are big, some are small, but they are real and live well around us. Someone is performing an act of kindness every moment, it may be as simple as holding a door open, offering a seat, offering to assist, sharing knowledge, mentoring someone to be better, do better, be stronger. It lives out there! I let myself fall into a trench of sad, horrific news, false hoods and so forth.
Just do something kind, good for someone, hold a door an extra second for someone, you may not get a thank you, but then you just might and a smile to boot!!
Every day I practice a random act of kindness to someone I know or to a person I’ve never met, These acts of kindness are a part of me, they are part of what makes me ME!
Sometimes I feel like people think that I am crazy, strange and whatever because I practice this, it did bother me that some would not even acknowledge the kindness, but no more, don’t need that acknowledgment, just need to know that the kindness comes from my heart and it shall always remain that way to the day I am called back home!!
So if you are the beneficiary of an act of kindness from me or from another, be thankful that someone gave you such a special gift. Go out and do the same to someone you know or don’t know, just get out there and do it!!! Thanks from my heart to yours!!!
