Making Things Better With Kindness Medicine
I was at the bank applying for a new ATM card because mine was damaged. As I was filling in a form given to me by the bank officer, a middle-aged woman came and asked the banker if she could withdraw a certain amount of money and showed the officer her bank book. The banker checked her pass book and told her she could withdraw the amount requested. She then returned to the line to wait her turn, saying she needed the money to pay for her medicine.
While I was filling out the form heard what she said and suddenly my mind suggested that I give her the amount she needed. I quickly turned to her and confirmed how much she needed and told her not to withdraw money from her account. Instead, I said I would give her the money.
She was shocked and looked at me with tears in her eyes and said, "Thank you, daughter. When ever I take my medicine I will remember you."
Tears came to my eyes, too.

A Bus Ticket
I was traveling in a public bus. At a bus stop a group of small boys got in to the bus with books and bags in their hands. The conductor of the bus started to issue tickets for them. All the boys were getting their tickets individually while one was still searching for his money.
He put his small hand in to the pockets on his trousers. He put his hand into his bags' deepest ends and corners. He was nervous. I noticed this and quickly took a note of money and slowly put on his small hand. He looked at me with a relief impression ...did not say a single word....and quickly asked for his ticket from the bus conductor.
This incident made me really happy.....even today when I remember this, I feel really happy.
