Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Kindness On The Ground And In the Air

Kindness on the ground, In the Air and on the ground again.

I am grateful to my nephew who dropped me off at the SNA airport on June 30. His wife cooked and gave me a large packet of roti. I am grateful to her too.

I love to spread kindness. While waiting before the boarding time I gave three quote cards to a lady seated near me. I give them with firm understanding and remembering that God residing in me is giving to the God residing in others. I showed and gave fer the quote card that changed Fatemah's life for the better. I talked to her about KindSpring. org and told her intense positive thinking story. She was listening to me with interest. I rewarded her with a homemade birthday card and gave her some more cards to share with others.

I was guessing that a lady would occupy the seat near me in the plane. My positivity found its way. I welcomed her with a smile. She reciprocated the same. I gave her quote cards and told her Fatemah story, intense positive thinking story and talked about beautiful website KindSpring.org and encouraged her to visit it. I asked her if she would like to have more quote cards to share with others. She nodded yes. I gave her some more. I told her about the New Year's event where about 35-40 volunteers give away about 3000 quote cards and sell balloons. The proceeds from these sales go to support the education of needy student.

I prayed for wellbeing and safety of all the passengers and crew members.

I also gave her the list of positive thinking books to read. I also told her that she will find PDF of two of them online for free. When the plane reached OAK airport I found from the bag and gave birthday card to her. She thanked me profusely with beautiful smiles. I cracked a joke with her that generated laughter on her face.

I let go passengers go ahead of me by waiting near my seat. I received smiles in return.

At the baggage claim, I gave quote cards to passengers standing near me. I struggled to pull my luggage bag from the conveyer belt. One gentleman helped me pull it out. I thanked him and gave quote cards.

I am grateful to my brother-in-law and his friend who picked me up from the airport.

I am extremely grateful to Sri Sathya Sai Baba for sending me all these opportunities my way and for His help and guidance to manifest them..
