Just read this wonderful post by KindSpring member Gyrocloudy and want to share it with you:

A Friend Of Mine ...
A friend of mine watched me enter here in KS. He asked: "what is that place you always visit?" Then I made a quick briefing for him. Then he was reflexive and asked:

- So, all of you people are boasting about good deeds?

I remained in silence. Then, a few minutes later I said:

- No. We share positive thoughts and invite people to change for good. It's inspiration and daily dosis of good vibes. It's an inspiration, because you can emulate those good deeds and apply them into your life. And you start to change your world and spread kindness.

Then he replied:

- But that doesn't work too much. There's many evil in this planet, and you guys are few against an army of negativity. Besides, you don't change anything by simply posting beautiful images and quotes. If you want to change the world, donate or something.

Then he was laughing. Then I replied:

- Which side you choose? You can be part of that negativity army or you can join us. It's all about you. By posting images and quotes you're transforming your inner spirit and telling your subconscious every day that your world is beautiful. IT's your daily food for spirit. With those pictures and quotes many depressed people find a light on their sad days. For your information, I've donated many times but I don't tell anyone because it's a little secret of happiness and I don't need to brag about that. Remember when you found those extra $20 in your wallet after you told me you hadn't nothing to eat? It was a donation from me. So, you tell me if it changed your world or not.

He remained in silence. Then he said:

- I am sorry.

I told him:

- Don't be. You can change your world if you want. No matter what. No matter the opposite army. Just start and spread. If virus can spread, then kindness too. Just imagine how many lives can change and be saved just by being kind...

Then he tried to smile but was very embarrased. I just put a hand on his shoulder and told him:

- Just relax. Repel negativity. Embrace happiness.
