A little act of Kindness..!!

Fadi was in a tenth standard living a miserable life with his single parent family; his mother was alcoholic and patient of depression. Fadi had no siblings. He has no friends because no one likes him because of his low social class and background. He works to sponsor his education and to support the medications of his mother.

One day, going back to home from school, having books and medicines in his hand, he bumped with something on ground and fallen down along with books and medicines in school corridor. He got upset and agitated with situation.

Beside him a guy name Mike was watching this scene, without saying anything, he put his hand to help him and start recollecting the books and medicines from the floor. While collecting the stuff, Mike introduced himself and offer Fadi that I’ll help you to bring these thing to home and after that we’ll went to the park and play, Fadi accepted his proposal.

After playing in a park Mike insisted that Fadi must come to his home and have dinner with his family. Fadi was unable to refuse him. In a mean while they become good friends.

Finally Fadi got someone to share his sadness and a person he can call a friend. Later, Fadi and Mike got their education together till the masters program.

At the day of convocation, while all the students were cheering up and throwing their caps in air, Fadi called Mike to him and said: Today, I want to share a secret with you, remember that day when we met first. Yes, replied by Mike.

Do you remember what things were in my hand, asked by Fadi.
Some books and medicines for your mother, replied by Mike
No, those medicines were not for my mother, they were sleeping pills and I bought them for me to suicide, those days of my life was miserable, and I’d decided to leave this world but, you came in my life by showing a little kindness and now we are here at this place. At that day, your kind gesture was not just helping, but it was life saving, thank you my friend.

A little act of kindness can be just a gesture of goodness or part of nature for us, but it can be a life saving for someone. It’s not about investing thousands for supporting anyone, but a kind gesture or a little smile can do lots for others. So act kindly and help others as time never remains same.
