Positive Steps Into Social Mobility: Kindness Is The New Cool
KINDNESS IS THE NEW COOL
We never know how far reaching something we say or do today will affect the lives of others tomorrow.
You'll never regret being treated kindly, especially in times when you need it most.
Being on the receiving end of a kind act is also proven to make YOU more compassionate towards others..what a double whammy of ever-expanding grace!!
I remember this one time. Not only was this an act of kindness it was an act of good social manners. A middle aged Asian woman asked me if I was OK, as she saw me trip over a paving stone and I crash landed on the pavement ruining my clothes and tights. She saw me fall over from 200 yards away and as she approached me she took the time to find out it I was OK. She cared about my well-being. My ability to stand tall, dust myself down and keep going. She made a comment about the terrible state of London pavements, gave me a knowing smile and wished me well on my day. She was sincere in her concern. This is what I felt from our brief exchange of human kindness. That was a beautiful act of kindness that I did not expect and that I have treasured to memory.
What is the the most memorable act of kindness you've been the receiver of and how did it change you?
