A kind act, a world of blessings


I WOULD like to start this new year off positively for the nation by sharing one of the kindest acts I have ever heard of.

The kind act that cut across racial and religious divides benefited so many people, including me. It also illustrates the idea that the height of spirituality is not building great houses of worship or spending billions to fund a government religious department; that spirituality can be exemplified by a simple act of kindness that knows no bounds of geography, politics or religion.
