There is a lot to be said for small acts of kindness and the impact it has on things.
Our mind set, our day, our lives. The way we do things on a daily basis. Following the same old routine in auto pilot can suddenly change with a small act of kindness, given or received.
I believe the beauty of it is not on the act itself but on what it represents, to be acknowledged. Someone has noticed you as an individual or you have seen someone outside of the total, outside of the ‘people’. You have seen a person.
How beautiful it is to relate, to appreciate again. We are always so focused on the inside of our troubled minds. To be acknowledged is like pressing pause or awaking from a day dream. And it is relieving.
Let’s never forget that inside the masses, the crowd there are little dots we call human beings. We are so diverse and special and yet we are the first ones to forget.
Today an act of kindness reminded me that I’m here and for that I’m thankful.
