Thursday Challenge

I agree with what Cleveland Amory said… “What this world needs is a new kind of army - the army of the kind.” Holding a door, saying hello, helping carry a bag, sharing a word, and yes maybe even buying a cup of coffee just makes a difference. Most of the time random acts of kindness take very little or no money, so what is the hold up? Get out there and start committing…

When people say committing random acts of kindness does NOT make a difference and when people say that one person can NOT make a difference I recall real life examples, like this one, and am reminded on how much of a difference can be made!

Hasifa’s work ranks in the top 10 among the most diverse companies in America. With this being the case, a lot of times we run into situations where there is a language barrier. A while back, one of her coworkers twisted her wrist while lifting something that might have been too heavy for her. This particular coworker speaks little English and Hasifa’s Spanish needs “mucho” work.

Hasifa knew, being an athlete, that first aid for this type of injury required RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation.) With little understanding of what I was doing, she trusted that I meant to help. So she handed me her arm and I wrapped it up before she left to see her doctor.

A few days later, the coworker came up to Hasifa without a word; and she hugged Hasifa and patted her on the back. When asked why the wonderful affection, her reply was “thank you for taking care of my arm when I got hurt”. I had forgotten about the incident already and when I looked down I saw that her arm was in a cast. She went on to tell me that her doctor told her putting ice on her injury was a good thing but she never would have known to do. Reach out today and pass on the kindness, pay it forward, care to share! You never know what a difference a simple act of kindness makes to a person.


YOU CAN BE THE CHANGE YOU SEEK IN THIS WORLD. It is nice to be important. It is more important to be nice. Think about what you have done, what you are doing and what you can do to, with and for others that will make life on earth better for us ALL!
