It's my first post for my newly upgraded blog. Although I am too lazy to import my database from the previous blog because the dumping of the database will took days or a week. Anyway, I want to share to all of you about what happened if you always be kind to other people even if you don't know them at all.
I was walking from the train station to my school. I was 30 minutes late that time, so I wasn't trying to rush my walk since I knew I was late already. While I was walking, a man was like power walking or slowly running. He was wearing an office suit and holding a piece of newspaper. He walked passed me by from behind. Then suddenly his wallet dropped on the ground without him noticing it. I didn't had the thought of taking the wallet and keep to myself. What I did was I shout so I can have his attention, I picked up the wallet and hand it to him. He was so relieved that I gave it to him and not keeping it to myself. I can't remember how many times he thank me from what I did. Then while we are walking to the same direction, he asked me where I am going. I said I will go to my school. He asked my course which is IT. Then he said he is in IT too. He said he and his other colleague will start a new company. He asked for my contact detail so he could help me on my career. He said he will recommend me to some companies. Honestly I don't mind if he won't do anything in return for me. It was just a simple act of kindness. Later that day, I guess he couldn't call me on my mobile phone since its battery was already low, so he sent a text message. He said in that sms that he is really grateful that I showed my kindness even if he is a stranger to me. After couple of days, he sent a text message again asking if I have an e-mail address so we can communicate longer. Although I haven't reply to his e-mail message, I will soon. It's just that I am still thinking about it and I am being cautious since my dad advised me to be careful on giving my own details. Anyway, if we do simple act of kindness at least one for each day, we may brighten anyone's day. It doesn't matter if we won't receive anything from them in return. Just helping a stranger or anyone can make your feeling great. I hope this article gave you some ideas how to face each day of your life. |
