Today is a day that gave me so much happiness to attend the wedding of Mr. K, an ex-colleague of mine who is visually impaired. About 7 years ago, I was part of a small team that helped hire differently-abled people into our organization.
Mr. K is an accessibility engineer, very successful in his job, very humble and grateful. Mr. K has been mentoring many visually challenged people across the world and has helped so many to get started in their careers.
This morning, as I greeted Mr. K after the formal exchange of vows with his spouse Mrs. D, his joy had no bounds and so was mine. He introduced Mrs. D to me and it turns out that Mrs. D is also visually impaired and she is a successful school teacher. I wished them very well. When I turned around, I met a person who introduced himself as Mrs. D's school teacher from her childhood. He shared his joy of Mrs. D getting married and I shared the joy of Mr. K getting married after I introduced myself to him. He was delighted to hear from me how good Mr. K is, as a human being.
Is it not wonderful that a sprinkle of kindness can bloom, grow, multiply, and unite into many other forms of kindness in this world? That is the joy of kindness.
