-It is one of the most beautiful compensations of life, that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself- Ralph Waldo Emerson


These are the most beautiful words of wisdom I've ever heard.
Sounded like music to my ears.
And it really speaks true of my own experience.
One can seriously never know how much in return
a little bit of kindness shown to others can do.
I did.
And I just got overwhelmed by how much
I got in return.
Never expected.
Never desired.
But I just feel so lucky now.
Like the richest man on earth.
I guess nobody will ever understand how much
I have stand to gain in a small Act of Random Kindness(ARK).
- the knowledge, wisdom, ability to see things from alternative perspective,
happiness derived and most importantly, a true friend.
Now right here, is a happy and contented heart
which has fully healed and able to help others again.

Something else I have figured out.
Hate is the root of evil.
Through forgiveness and empathy,
I have finally managed to forsake the past
and brace myself for the exciting possibilities of the future.
