Kindness

By Zaina Starr

“Sometimes people are beautiful. Not in looks, not in what they are, just in what they are.”-The Book Theif

There are many people that societies can count on that still demonstrate those random actions of kindness. These people are the ones that are chained to The melody of paying it forward. That’s the true greatness of being a giver. They give and never expect any favors in return. A true “giver” ,which is one of the gifts that the Holy Spirit provides for us. The giver receives joy and pleasure by giving to others. The experience of seeing or feeling someone else’s happiness and joy by giving to them, is the game changer for them. They would rather experience someone else joyful and happy than they would themselves. Those people are not selfish, but are known as selfless. They received their enjoyment from just the feedback of their gift-giving abilities. That is someone who is actually demonstrating, what I call, true kindness. A person who is not selfish, but selfless.

Each and every community has these types of people in them. The givers , the selfless people of the world, the ones who spread true kindness.

There are people who give two others to only do this for a show they are only giving to another for the popularity. That is not true kindness.

Most of the time, the people receiving a gift doesn’t even know who the giver is. That is absolutely the most caring and kind act. To give to someone, anonymously, and never receive any type of recognition for their generosity.
