So I called my friend and she was very happy. She was bubbling with joy. Finally, I asked her, from where was it coming. She was shy and then said anyway I want to share. Today I saw a group of a few children and I took them to have a burger. They all were happy. They thanked me. Since then I have been feeling so good. It was hardly any price. But the smiles and satisfaction from it are priceless. So I asked her, why are you feeling good? She thought for a while and said that maybe seeing them smile is making me smile. Maybe I feel, I have done something good. maybe I feel I am a better person.
The moment she said that I could feel why kindness is so important. Because we feel we are better. Do we like ourselves when we shout at someone? Do we like ourselves when we do not help anyone? I guess no! We actually like ourselves more when we know we have done something good for others. When we know we have helped someone. When we know we have done something good.
So be kind. It is the way. Help anyone you can and you see you will like yourself more and more. You would not need anyone’s approval to be who you are because you would know it. So be kind. Be kind in your words. Be helpful in your words. Be kind in your actions and be helpful. You will be happier and better.
