A little bit of kindness goes a very long way
There are so many people in need that
would value your help. Whether you
donate money, give some of your time or
simply just display kindness.
The second and more challenging is to
show kindness to the people you interact
w i t h d a i l y, y o u r a c q u a i n t a n c e s ,
colleagues, family and friends.
Research has shown that the old adage,
“it's better to give than to receive” is true
after all. There are two opportunities to
display kindness in this world.
The beauty in giving is that it's limitless,
no act of kindness is ever too small or
wasted.
The first is to be kind to those who are
financially or physically less fortunate.
As we celebrated Mandela Month this
July, giving generously to those in need,
let's not forget to give to one another.
Those closest to you are sometimes the
ones we tend to neglect.
“We make a living by what we
get, we make a life by what
we give.” Winston Churchill
Kindness is the most valuable gift you will
ever give someone.
