Embrace Kindness!

Dear friends,

Recently people all around me have been talking about kindness or sharing something nice that has happened to them. I have been hearing it with Ryan Seacrest (Celebrity Host & DJ), KISS 92, The Straits Times and Reader's Digest, my all time favorite magazine. It is nice when you hear random acts of kindness especially by strangers. We all need love and want to be treated nicely by others. Likewise, we should pay it forward by doing nice things for others.

In this world where there are so many things going wrong with shootings, with terrorism, with politicians inciting racial hatred behavior, rape, incest, etc., we need people to come forward with good news and good stories that drown these negative acts. We all can collectively change a person by showing them how to be kind and loving.

I enjoyed reading this Reader's Digest article online so I thought I will write about kindness in this blog. Here is the article for you all to read.

There was a Doctor in Coimbatore, India who charged only RP20 for all his patients. The patients buy their medicine at the pharmacy. The medicine he prescribed would not cost more than RP50. (Total cost RP70 is roughly USD 1.024). His name is Dr. Balasubramaniam. He passed away just this week. He was a savior to not one or two people but to thousands of poor people. They loved him like God. His reason for doing it was, God had given him enough money to take care of himself so he wanted to help the poor get back their health. He would even do it for free for patients who had no money. He is another version of Mother Teresa. God Bless Him!

Here is more details about his work and his life:

If you have experienced such random acts of kindness or have done something nice for someone do write about it in the comments column. I would love to hear from you.

Do not forget acts of kindness by a stranger or by a family member. It is nice to make someone else smile for a change. Embrace Kindness!

Have a Great Week and God Bless! Love All, Serve All!

Cheers,
Mark
