Doing Good is Important and it Connects Us →

When I do good I feel good. When I do bad I feel bad. That's my Religion Abraham Lincoln.png

Religion involves an individual's devotion or passion for something they consider essential. Abraham Lincoln believed that performing good deeds was significant enough to be deemed the most important pursuit. Some individuals may perform good deeds because they think it is expected of them by their God, while others may consider it their religious duty. Lincoln's statement indicates that performing good acts is of paramount significance.

Performing good deeds encompasses acts of kindness and actions that benefit others, focusing on benefiting people other than oneself. On the other hand, performing well involves achieving a state of balance, reaching personal objectives, and attaining worldly happiness. However, an individual doing well may only perform a few good deeds.

Kindness plays a vital role in connecting individuals with others. It is essential to be kind to others as it helps meet their needs, strengthens existing connections, and creates new ones. For example, the person sitting next to you may be facing challenges you are unaware of. Our experiences and struggles teach us how difficult life can be. They also instill a sense of compassion and empathy within us, prompting us to be kind to others.

The Power of Kindness: Why It's Important to Show Empathy and Compassion →

The obvious reason to be kind is to help meet the needs of the people in your life. The person sitting right next to you might have problems that you just could never even guess. You have had problems and know how .png

Kindness is an essential quality that we should all strive to cultivate. It allows us to respond to the challenges that others face, even when we may not be aware of the difficulties they are going through. When we show kindness and empathy, we establish meaningful connections with those around us, which can be especially important during difficult times.

In addition, being kind to others can also positively affect us, helping us shift our focus away from our problems and assist in personal growth.

We can develop positive relationships with acquaintances, loved ones, and strangers by demonstrating kindness and empathy. This is because kindness fosters empathy, compassion, and appreciation, which can enhance our relationships with others. In turn, this connection can help combat feelings of loneliness, common symptoms of depression.

Ultimately, kindness is about doing the right thing and having the bravery to do it. It requires us to be thoughtful, considerate, and compassionate, even when it may be difficult. However, the benefits of kindness are undeniable, both for those around us and for ourselves. So let's spread kindness wherever we go, and make the world a better place, one act of kindness at a time.
