"I am too emotional, this is what most people said to me, but that's not always the case, I became so keen to those things, which they used to categorize me, when I put myself in the shoes of others peoples and feel their life challenges, then I will just wish, I can be of help to all of them, the truth is, there are many things I can't be of help, and knowing it, broke my heart, therefore, I think this is where I am being regarded as an emotional somebody.
Yet, there are somethings I can do, and if I come across such, I will gladly do whatever I can, most of the times, I came across people who request for help on the road, and I never hesitate to, if I can and If as at that moment, I can't help, I will speak politely to the person and told him/her that I wish I can.
That was by the way, few days ago, I was coming out of a shop, it is a supermarket located just a mile away from my residents, and there is this man, who lived in the same street, he does not know me since I am new in the environment, but I know him quite well and also, I have hangout with his son before in the city park.
So, he was coming out of the shop, and the rain started falling, definitely, he came with a car, but it seems there was something he needed to buy and then take it to the office, so I came out and I saw him, I noticed he could not go into the rain because it will soaked him.
As he was well dressed in a suit trouser and jacket, look like he was having a meeting to attend, I told him, I am going to escort him in my umbrella to his car, because the shop parking lot is somehow far from where customers park vehicles and machine, I think that's a major problem with the shop, I took him there and he was very happy, as he gets into his car, and no much rain beat on him.
Later on, I was on my way, he thought of dropping me in a place I was going, but I wasn't going his direction and where I lived was close to the shop.
Even while I got home, I was happy that I could help, at least, I have make him not to be late to the office.
What did I used to show kindness, it was just an umbrella, it might be a common object that are up to six in people's houses, but in a case where we need something and we can't find it, that thing has value as at that very moment.
Kindness can be exercise in many ways, depending on the arena we finds ourselves, the most important thing is, to be there for people when we can.
Life shouldn't be difficult that is why I do not stressed myself too much and I always stick to a happy mindsets, mostly, the things we want doesn't appear to us as we keep worrying of it, but in some moments, when we ease up our minds, new ideas would come in, and we can as well start from there.
