"Great opportunities to help others seldom come, but small ones surround us every day." -Sally Kock-

 



Sometimes I wonder if it is necessary for others to know what and how we helped others. Because sometimes I can feel that I have to justify all my actions even if it's just a little act of kindness. Honestly, I always feel shy to say the kindness I have done for others and the reason for this is something I myself cannot understand why. I'm really very sorry if I don't know why I'm shy, maybe because it's just very small...
I think if we will just open our mind's eye there are a lot of good things we can do for others. We just have to be sensitive a little to know what goodness we can do, and as I have read in one book, sensitivity is... "the art of the small".

I wonder if others do feel the same way too. -Lynne-

  • Dear Kadi,
    You are absolutely right! Doing something good sincerely is different from doing something good to show off.
    I had an irate feeling when I heard someone who deliberately told me that he was just doing things because there are people who can see him not because, he sincerely like doing it. That was a strange behaviour really.
    Thank you for sharing your opinion here Kadi.
    Good day!

  • Dear Tomasito,
    I agree with you. But, people's way of thinking aren't the same... sometimes we will be in some situations that forced us to show what have we have done in this world... one thing I can tell is... I have forgiven a lot of people and God is my witness... sometimes in so doing we are being misunderstood as well. Well, whatever it is I have nothing to say now... ^_^
    Thank you very much for sharing your opinion on this topic.
    Good day!

  • Great thoughts as usual...sometimes you help people without even knowing or acknowledging it.
  • Any help is welcome no matter how great or little a help is. Just try to do your best to help those who need your help.
  • "I think if we will just open our mind's eye there are a lot of good things we can do for others"
    that's really possible with love and purity of heart.
