The last act of Kindness I showed someone was Last week. So I had this neighbor who got sick and he called me on phone that he was very down. At that point in time that he called I was very tired because have been marking over 300 Students Scripts and also recording the Scores but I had to go to his house. I brought him food and called my sister who is a Pharmacist to help prescribe drugs for him because the sickness got worse even after going to the Hospital and taking drugs. My sister asked me to take him to go take intravenous Fluid and I took him to a Pharmacy to take Intravenous Fluid, stayed with him until he finished taking the it. After that, I took him home, bought food for him and left for my house around 10.30pm.

Why did you help this person? How much did it cost you?

I helped him because I love helping people, kindness is one of my virtue and as a Christian we ought to help one another and also as a Catholic, one of our Corporal works of Mercy says we should visit the sick. For me, an act of Kindness doesn't cost anything.

What benefits did you derive by offering help?

After rendering that act of Kindness, I felt happy, satisfied and fulfilled.
