“Be KIND, for whenever kindness becomes part of something, it BEAUTIFIES it, whenever it is taken from something, it LEAVES it tarnished.”_ Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him)

I always wonder what the secret behind living or living happily and with times, I came to know that it was Kindness. A Kind Friend, A Kind Person or A Kind Act Strengthen your personality. Kindness has been found to be the most important predictor of satisfaction and stability.

Kindness is contagious. It is a passport that softens hearts and molds relationships that can last lifetimes. The more unexpected act of kindness you did the more satisfaction surely you will be received. In Kasanoff’s book, Givers Deliver: Grow Your Career by Helping Others, he tells of his kindness first philosophy:

Every day, in the #1 slot on my to-do list, I write “kindness.” Before I do anything else, I take at least one action that serves no purpose other than to be kind to another person.

Therefore, here I describe following a small act that one should practice applying kindness in their life
