Love and kindness are never wasted, they bless the giver and the receiver – Barbara De Angelis
There’s a popular story of a blind man living in a small town. He couldn’t see. Yet, he carried a lighted lamp with him whenever he went out at night.
One night as he was coming home after having dinner outside, he came across a group of young men. They saw that he was blind, yet carrying a lighted lamp. They started passing comments on him & made fun of him. One of them asked him, “Young man! You are blind & can’t see anything! Why do you carry the lamp then?!”
The blind man replied, “Yes, unfortunately, I am blind & I can’t see anything but a lighted lamp which I am carrying is for the people like you who can see.

You may not see the blind man coming and end up pushing me. That is why I carry a lighted lamp”.
The group of travellers felt ashamed & apologized for their behaviour.
Kindness & compassion can make a difference. Even with your disadvantages & disappointments in life, if you choose to be kind & generous, you can bring others to light.
Even small acts of kindness can have a big impact & inspire others to do the same.
