Kindness Always.

I was watching 'Lage Raho Munnabhai' again for a change today. I love the movie. It makes me get involved in it. It is one of those set of movies which has made the masses think and change actually act in the real life as showed in it. It famed up and shooted one word in the masses 'Gandhigiri'-the positive way of approching the people doing bad with you or the society. To an extent it worked but then i guess the media hype saturated the genuineness and the aesthetic value of the fantastic concept and the society started taking it lightly, it could have made wonders if it would have been able to preserve its aesthetic value.

Also the Gandhian values, they are also of so much high respect when we understand its simplicity and truthfulness.

Real generosity is doing something nice for someone who will never find out. ~Frank A. Clark

Though there is one factor which i made me think and share it with you was, Gandhigiri, the concept shown in the movie deals only with those who have some problems and doing good to them who are in some or the other way being a misfit with the normal things around them.
But there are so many people who are good at heart, good at helping people, good at work, good at their committments good at everything.. Somewhere deep inside their heart also they feel and await for something good for them. Not only them but in general everyone likes the surprises and good things happening to them anonymously.
But the lack of trust and confidence and the fear of everything just everything around them has weakend them.
Every person without categorizing them into good or bad, doing anonymously good things for them is what we call, Acts Of Kindness and we just dont say it,
We do it!


Try giving ice cream to watchmen, a Parker to your peon, a brand new shirt to your waste picker, give mineral water or cold drinks to the traffic cops standing on the roads.
I have said this before also and still the same without expecting something good happening to you, start doing tiny little good things for everything around you and together we bring the change.
