I heard “Kindness is
the rent that you pay for occupying the space on this earth” author unknown. I
always believed in kindness, and tried my best to practice kindness in my daily
life, be it at home, or workplace or any opportunity that I find, I made sure
to do my bit.
I also value all those
persons in my life who have very kind to me, in terms of sharing their
knowledge, resources, at times even money, time and ensured to make my life a
little more happy, comfortable and meaningful…. So I made a decision to give
all that I can to bring in a smile, a kind word, a hug and my time, energy and
resources to bring laughter and joy around.

I had an experience last
week wherein I went to the petrol pump to fill in petrol in my bike and I paid
Rs 500/- as I had no change of RS
100/- and I forgot to take the change
and in a hurry rode home to continue my daily schedule.
I wanted to give some
change for my daughter; and suddenly I found there was no money… .. I sat down
and emptied my bad, looking for Rs 400 the balance that is supposed to be
there. After an hour I remembered about the petrol and realized that I have
forgotten to take the change… the next day was Sunday.. .. so I waited for Monday
and went to the petrol bunk and told the supervisor about my mistake of having
forgotten to take the change. The
supervisor asked me to wait for a while, checked with me which row I filled, in
order to track the person who was filling, and then helped me to get back the
change of Rs 400.
I was so happy at the kindness
shown to me by all the workers there; it only reinforced my belief and desire
to be kind in my life.
Be Kind &Be Happy !
There are still many people who don't fail to express themselves with kindness. You've been really lucky to come across a kind supervisor who took the trouble to return your money. This was a short and sweet post for World kindness day.
ReplyDeleteThanks Diana, nice to hear from you; as you say I am really lucky to get back the money; also I find this particular place very customer friendly; they offer water to customers; give chocolates to small kids when they notice and they also play some very melodious instrumental music of hindi songs and its a pleasure to be there ....
