"Kindness in words creates confidence.
Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates
love." - Lao Tzu
We are in that special season again when
everything is in full swing – parties, shopping, old friends’ get together
– uncanny as it may seem for some, even the unselfishness
in everyone is radiating.
It was a random post that got my attention
one afternoon this week. It is about an old man trying to buy a pair of shoes
for his grandson but he doesn't have enough to cover the purchase. What happened
next took me unawares. Someone among
those people staring offered to shoulder the payment instead. That is to say a
wonderful person - full of the milk of human kindness. And so the child was in
seventh heaven – a merry Christmas indeed.
I feel like people are kinder and more
accepting this time of the year. I hope every day is Christmas so we would
bring out the goodness in ourselves.
Giving is not only on material things but also those not seen by the naked
eyes. I am in no position to dictate what is essential for us this Christmas,
but whatever it is, I am sure that happiness for everyone is what
we seek to achieve. Merry Christmas!
