Make Kindness A Contagious Act


Mrs. Anderson was driving at  top speed in the wee hours of the night. She had been told her husband had suffered a mild stroke but was in a stable condition now in a hospital in the centre of town.
Suddenly, one of her tyres burst out and she stopped to check for herself but she couldn't find anyone to help her do that. So she stood there by her car waiting for a good samaritan to show up and help her out.
That's when Joey Monti showed up. He asked if Miss Anderson needed help with her car and she said yes. He helped fixed another tyre into the old lady's car. 
Thank you very much young man, I'm Sylvia Anderson. Here's a little token for you for your kindness towards me young man.
Joey rejected the puffy envelope from Mrs. Anderson after she had told him where she was going and why.

Spread the kindness on another person in my name. Make it contagious. That's all Joey said.
She drove a few metres to a restaurant nearby which was still open and sat down. A young woman named Stacy came up to her with a beaming smile and asked what can we offer you ma'am?? A cup of coffee. That's all. She said. Stacy came back and to her suprise, the old woman had already left.
But she had left the big puffy envelope on the table with a little note attached that read; a kind young man wants me to give this to you.
Tracy tore the envelope open and found a 1,000 dollars inside. She squeezed her hand in a morsel with tears of joy and said lord, thank you thank you. She had been praying for a miracle to help her pay off a student loan.
She went home and kissed her boyfriend who was sleeping on the forehead. She whispered softly to him; don't you worry, Joey,  baby, somebody just paid off my loan. You don't have to work so hard to find money anymore.

Here is what this little story means; Joey rejected Mrs. Sylvia Anderson's offer even though he knew he needed money to pay off his girlfriend's (Stacy) student's loan. The kindness however returned back to Joey through her girlfriend Stacy at the restaurant.

Do you feel tired already because you have been doing good but yet with no reward??
Do not despair nor give up. Keep doing good and being Kind. Spread it around to everyone and make it contagious to reach everyone in this difficult times, as nations and individuals are dealing with the scare of the virus in their homes.

You might be surprised with the results.

Let the spirit of kindness move you today!

How Failure Breeds Great Achievers

I get asked by many people a lot of times... Why do you always like writing motivational stories and messages to inspire others. What inspires you, and what do you get from doing that  every morning anyway? My answer has always been simple. To prevent people  especially you from giving up in life when you face the least form of failure. My greatest wish is to provide hope, faith and reason for you not to give up in life. I would like you to think of me   as your symbol of Inspiration for each day. Most people, ironically, think  that people who always inspire, motivate and encourage other people don't have problems,  they think they have a cozy and smooth life, that's why they are able to encourage people. But believe me, that's not true. On the contrary, those kind of people like me, are the kinds of people facing all sorts of problems, challenges and difficulties in life. The trick here, however is, I have chosen to look at  my failures, challe...

Everything Is Temporary

Corona Virus has proved that everything around us is so temporary. Things that our lives revolved around...work, gym, malls, movies and other social activities have all gone for a toss. These were things which used to occupy our time and attention virtually everyday, so much that we neglected what was most important to us in the first place. We are learning to live without them now, as our only option these days, is to stay indoors to keep ourselves safe. It is teaching us all  one thing,  that in the end, our home and families really matter. They are our point of safety in difficult times like these. So should this crisis come to an end, which will be very soon,   do know where your priorities lie henceforth. It is not in your work, or your insatiable ambitions. It is with your family.

An Attitude Of Gratitude

To have an attitude of gratitude is the greatest virtue anyone  can have. Because it shows that you are content with the little you have and a happy expectation of all you are yet to have and enjoy in life. If you really want your life to change, then you need to add the habit of  gratitude. I realised that our generation of today take the power of being grateful for granted. Because we are a generation that is burnt on having more and more everyday, we quickly lose sight of the important things we already have that is keeping our life afloat at this moment. It's almost as if each one of us is in competition with one another when it's not supposed to be so. I was born with a disability from birth, an advanced form of poliomyelitis. I had twisted hands and legs as a child so I was only able to crawl on the floor. That was my only way to move. I hated that and myself so much because I wanted to walk just like everybody else. I was consumed so much by hate and ingratitude ...
