a small token of kindness (dated 12 July 2021)
we all have a very specifically defined meaning for kindness. but should i let you in on a little secret?
kindness is not always about speaking a good word, spreading a smile or stopping a dispute. it is not always about feeding a stray or poor, helping the underprivileged or guiding the lost.
sometimes, more often than not, it is about building the courage to stop the wrong, even if it is by a mere word, and helping the other understand in what and which way they were incorrect.
the world suffers so much not because of the violence of the evil, but because of the silence of the good.
know that if you see wrong happening before your eyes, it is God's way of testing you to watch whether you do build the courage and take a stand for justice or walk away silently.
the world is already dying and such facts cannot be untold, but at least we can try to make the present scenarios better with our actions and our intellects.
you have the power to change a little and together when combined, this 'little' change can bring about a global impact.
all you have to do is use your kindness in the right direction.
