The Act of Kindness

-

 True greatness lies in being kind, the truest wisdom lies in a happy mind.

Every act of kindness that you do today returns to you in a rewarding way. You must invest in great deeds. Shower as many favours as you can on whomsoever you meet and your life's pocket will always overflow with blessed rewards.

When you are good and kind to others you feel ecstasy. If you going to help never expect something in return while passing a favour to someone. Helping and serving others will make our life meaningful and complete. While doing the act of kindness you will feel yourself full of gusto and enthusiasm.

Here is a story about kindness. Let's read ---------


              A Glass Of Milk


One day a poor boy was selling clothes from door to door to pay for his education. He realised that he had only ten cents left in his pocket. He was hungry and so decided to ask for some food at the next house that came to.

A beautiful young woman opened the door. But instead of a meal, the boy asked for a glass of water. The woman
could read from the boy's face that he was hungry, so she brought him a glass of milk. He drank it very slowly and asked,
 "How much do I owe you? "
"You do not owe me anything at all", she replied, "My mother taught me never to accept anything for doing someone an act of kindness".

The boy replied, "Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart".
When he left the house feeling stronger physically, he sensed a return of his faith in the Lord whom he had nearly abandoned.

Years later this same young woman fell ill. The local doctors were puzzled, so they sent her to the big city where they knew that the specialists would be able to diagnose this rare sickness. Doctor Howard Kelly was called in as a consultant. When he heard the name of the city where she lived, a memory burned brightly in his eyes.

He got up and went to her room. As he entered the room he immediately recognised her. He returned to the consultation room, determined to do his best to save her life.

From that day on, he paid special attention to this case. After a long battle, the war was finally won. Doctor Kelly left instructions that the bill should be sent to him for authorisation. He looked it over, wrote something in the margin and sent it to her room.

The lady thought that when she would open the envelope., she would find an invoice that would take the rest of her life to pay in full. But when she finally opened it, she reads these words---

"Paid in full with a glass of milk"-Doctor Howard Kelly

Tears of joy filled her eyes and her heart  She was amazed to see how a little favour done yesterday was transformed into a great blessing and granted her a new life today.


Inspiring from this story. Friends, let us make a promise to ourselves today that we will go on leading our hand in kindness wherever and whenever it is required without seeking anything in return. Invite everybody to participate in your blessings.



The mirror always shows you a true reflection. Hence, to project a beautiful and bright image in the mirror of life, you must make your life beautiful and it is possible only through kindness.

Thank you

True Sayings of Krishna

Arjuna asked Krishna, 'Why Karna has a better liberality mindset than me?' Krishna showed a mountain of gold and asked Arjuna to give it to people in a single day. Arjuna went to the mountain and broke the mountain rock by rock to give to the people. It took him several days to complete it. Now, the same task was allocated to Karna. He gave all the people the required tools to break the mountain. He asked people to break the mountain and take whatever they wished. Everyone gathered and hit the mountain. They took away what they wanted and in a few hours, the entire mountain had vanished. Krishna told Arjuna, 'You want everything to be done by you. That is why it took you several days. You determined how much to be given. You didn't use teamwork and the required tools to break the mountain. Wanted credit for what you are doing. But Karna's aim was only to break the mountain in a day and distribute it to the people. He used teamwork and required tools and never claime

You Are Unique!

Think what a remarkable, miraculous thing it is to be you! Of all the people who have come and gone on the earth, since the beginning of time, not ONE of them is like YOU! No one who has ever lived or is to come has had your combination of abilities, talents, appearance, friends, acquaintances, burdens, sorrows, and opportunities. No, one's hair grows exactly the way yours does. No one's fingerprints are like yours. No one has the same combination of secret inside jokes and family expressions that you know. The few people who laugh at all the same things you do, don't sneeze the way you do. No one prays about the same concerns as you do. No one is loved by the same combination of people that love you - NO ONE! No one before, no one to come. YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE! Enjoy this uniqueness. You do not have to pretend to seem more like someone else. You weren't meant to be like someone else. You do not have to lie to conceal the parts of you that are not like what you se
