Sometimes we think that acts of kindness or acts of humanity, however you want to call it, should be paid for by the people to whom we do good. I think there is a misconception of what it is to do good.

Man by nature is not good, he is always selfish, envious, egocentric and with false modesty. It is very strange when in thousands of people we find the opposite behavior.

When we act as we should be unselfish and kind it is not, we who do it, it is our good spirit that acts. Why don't we put our best self to do good things for others without expecting anything in return? Expecting the people, we help to return the favor is selfish and it is also traumatic.

Why traumatic? Because if that person thinks of being our enemy after we help him/her, we say that he/she is ungrateful. No sir, that is wrong in front of us and others. People are the way they are and we never know them completely. Do good and don't expect favor in return. Set yourself free and expect acts of kindness to be repaid in life by a very different path than the one we expect.

Try to do good wherever you go and expect that the good you do will be repeated to another person and that chains of kindness will be made. The act of kindness you give now can later be given to another person who will thank God for the good deeds.

You know what? You will be sprinkled with those blessings because you have contributed to another person also having acts of kindness to another stranger who will repeat your action.

Good deeds always bring an echo of kindness that echoes back in many directions. Let us bring out our best acts of kindness to others. And you will see how your doors open to receive many blessings from other sides.

Have I seen it…?

Yes, I have experienced it, because when I receive so many nice things every day, I just smile with the person and with my heart. Therein lies my gratitude to the Lord for allowing me to receive the blessings of unexpected acts from strangers.

I am not going to write about my acts of kindness because it would no longer be kindness but sponsorship of me, what I suggest is that we do this test of doing good without seeing to whom and wait with our hearts glad that this person will thank another stranger, then we will receive more blessings in all directions.

Do you agree with my particular way of doing good?

Do you have another way of looking at things because of the blessings you have personally received?

Tell me not the good you have done, because you lose the grace if you tell it, just tell me the blessing you have received if you want to share it.

Life is full of many mysteries and this mystery of the mercy of kindness with strangers is something so beautiful that we do not get to know about something we did and the changes that it achieved in the person, but every day when so many good things happen to you you can only think that you are receiving the splashes of blessings for the deeds done to others.
