A man spoke with the Lord about Heaven and Hell. "I will show you Hell," said the Lord. And they went into a room which had a large pot of stew in the middle. The smell was delicious and around the pot sat people who were famished and desperate. All were holding spoons with very long handles which reached to the pot, but because the handles of the spoons were longer than their arms, it was impossible to get the stew into their mouths. Their suffering was terrible.
"Now I will show you Heaven," said the Lord, and they went into an identical room. There was a similar pot of stew and the people had the same identical spoons, but they were well nourished, talking and happy.
At first the man did not understand. "It is simple," said the Lord. "You see, they have learned to feed each other."
Kindness has blissful effect. It create huge amounts of happiness in the lives of ours & others. There's no need to be stingy in dispensing love & kindness, for unlike money, we wont run out of it by giving it away. Just the opposite, the more we give away, the more we'll receive.
What acts of kindness should we perform? That's easy, we should do what we wish to receive from others.
Don't be discouraged if the recipient of your kindness, doesn't respond. Carry on your every act in kindness, with no expectation. Safe in the knowledge that one day, someone somewhere might do the same for you.
Do all the good you can
By all the means you can
In all the ways you can
In all the places you can
At all the times you can
To all the people you can
As long as ever you can!
