This is the first post for “The Kindness Episode“, focus of which is to remind us about all the kind, nice, beneficial, and good things we do or can do for other people and animals, our communities, our world, and our environment.
My kindness episode for today was to attempt to help an elderly lady who was struggling to get up from the chair at the hair salon. She managed it before I could reach her, but it took her perhaps 7 attempts to lift herself up off the chair. We exchanged smiles after that.
I felt sad for this, knowing that we all can find ourselves in the same situation one day. But I am also happy that the lady did not ask for help and continuously tried to get off the chair. Her autonomy and freedom are certainly well deserved.
I am sure you have had similar gestures of kindness and compassion for others today. Share and let us cherish with you if you wish.

I am close to the last stop of the train I take to work. The people at the next stops after me never find seats because, well, we take them all. I am starting not to sit to allow another person at the following stop to sit instead. And besides, I sit all day at work!
