Do you consider yourself a kind person?

Yeah buddies I consider myself a kind person. The kindness is not just about being polite or friendly on the surface buddies. This is about genuinely caring of others. This is trying to make a positive difference in others lives. I always try to treat people with the respect. I try to treat the people with the empathy and understanding even in difficult situations. The kindness means being patient when someone is struggling. In that time offering support when someone needs is kindness for me. Buddies avoiding the judgment when people make mistakes. In my opinion it involves small everyday actions. Buddies I am a assistant pharmacist so I listening the people attentively. It is about helping someone without expecting anything in return. Well I am not perfect. I try to remind myself everyone is fighting their battles. Being kind is a conscious choice buddies. I try to make every day because I believe it not only makes life better for others. It also brings peace and fulfillment to myself.

Have you ever performed an act of kindness? If so, tell us about your experience. How did you feel afterward? And if you haven't, do you plan to someday? Tell us how you would do it, what you have in mind?

I think everybody in their lives performed act of kindness in different ways. I also have performed acts of kindness. The one experience which is stands out to me was helping a friend. My friend who was struggling emotionally budding. He was suffering from a difficult time. He felt completely alone. I decided to spend time with him every day just listening and offering support without judgment. I would bring him small gifts sometimes. I send him encouraging notes to remind him that he mattered. The better days were ahead. Over time I noticed his mood improving. My friend slowly regained his confidence and positivity. When I seeing that change in him. This thing made me realize how powerful even small acts of kindness can be. This is does not take grand gestures to make a difference. This is about just genuine care and presence. Then after that I felt deeply fulfilled and peaceful. After knowing that I could bring comfort to someone in need. This type of feeling gave me a stronger desire. Then I try to keep spreading kindness.

Are you one of those people who puts aside your own worries to help others?

I thought when I am dealing with my own challenges. Then the others are also facing the same buddies. Then in this time offering support to someone in need can make a real difference in their life. Buddies helping others does not just benefit them. It also gives me a sense of purpose and satisfaction. For example buddies if a friend or family member is struggling. I try to be there for them. I listen to their concerns. I offer any help I can. If it means postponing my own tasks or setting aside my personal worries for a while. Of course it is not always easy. Buddies sometimes it takes effort to stay patient and understanding. In the end seeing someone feel better because of my support makes all the effort worthwhile buddies what you say? I feel the kindness and empathy are some of the most meaningful ways to connect with others buddies.
