I read a book about 20 years ago called "The Prophet's Way". It's an interesting book and the one thing that really stuck with me was what the author believes is the most powerful force on earth ... here it is ... SMALL ACTS of RANDOM KINDNESS.
I've used this knowledge over the years and I have to say that it has been very powerful. Many times these small acts are done anonymously, maybe buying a breakfast for a cop at a restaurant without them knowing it, giving to a local charity that you have no connection with, or buying a missing hubcap for a friend without them being aware.
Many times these random acts of kindness will cost you nothing. Maybe it's a friend that just needs to vent his frustrations to someone, maybe it's just a smile to brighten someone's day, and maybe it's a phone call to a long lost friend. Any act of kindness like this benefits both the giver and the recipient.
During this crazy time we should all look for opportunities to show our kindness to another human being. The results might surprise you!
