Idea of the Week
147.jpg“After parking my car at the supermarket or discount store, I look around to see if anyone, especially an elderly person or mother with small children, has almost finished emptying their shopping cart. Then I ask them if they would like for me to take their cart into the store with me so that they won’t have to walk it to the cart-return area. Guess what? I have never been turned down, and have always been thanked for doing so.” — Loyal

Comment of the Week
“As a child, I used to collect all the good quotes (kindness, friendship, right behaviour quotes, etc) that I encountered in my routine life in my ‘quotes diary’. The purpose was merely to find nice quotes at one place to write on cards that we used to give our friends on special events. But I now realize that my diary served a greater purpose. Writing and repetitive reading of those quotes instilled in me a sense of righteousness, kindness and justice which is the foundation step of my motivation to be kind all along my life.” –sachineha
