Some people only show kindness during the holidays

โ€ข23 Replies

Doesn't cost you anything to be kind to someone, go visit a shelter, donate a blanket or a sweater, buy dinner for a homeless man.

Hey angel. Iโ€™m still battling a bad cold. I thought Iโ€™d be able to do some cooking today but Iโ€™m just too drained. Iโ€™m grateful I can just be in full self care mode rn. I really need it. How are you ? :)

Or homeless woman?

I do my bit during the whole year as I work as a volunteer in a charity shop. Animals can't look after themselves and I think they (and children) are a more worthy cause. Anything to help others is great though. x

A homeless woman, the elderly, doesn't matter, the point i was trying to make is that most people do all of that only during the holidays, im an animal lover so i agree i can't really imagine life without my furry baby

The human race is too disappointing, all of my help and charity goes to animals

Happy holidays ๐ŸŒป

I agree, and I hear some of the other replies that people are disappointing and they prefer to help animals. I think that homeless woman, that homeless kid, the single struggling mother, the lonely widow, the elderly person who no one visits, they would also see people as disappointing. Bravo Danielle, it truly is better to give than to receive. Thank you for the post. I will beef up my kindness efforts in 2019.

We are doing well, I have a bit of a cold that has been draining me a bit but I hope it will be gone soon. Wishing you and your family a blessed and happy holiday season.

Thank you for the compliment. I try.

I volunteer at 2 different women's shelters each week and never really see people but as soon as Christmas or thanksgiving comes there they come packing up the place, where were they the rest of the year

People are so busy at times and i get it but it only take a few minutes of your time to bring a little happiness and comfort to your fellow brothers and sisters

Sure doesn't

I agree with you 100%, to me it takes a lot of energy to be unkind, why this world is the way it is nowadays is so sad to me. Dump trucks of love, peace, light, joy & hugs for you....Merry Christmas Beautiful You!
