My Journey From Helped To Helper (Hl-w110e3)

Hello everyone, good day and welcome to my blog. This is my entry for Hive Learners weekly event for week 110 edition three.

Kindness is the best way to promote humanity in the world, a lot of people are depressed and the pressure is getting worse therefore a little bit of kindness can light up someone's day and save a person from traumatizing to stupor. I personally think we can fix the lots of troubles we are facing around the world through the act of kindness and love. Love is the principal thing when it comes to humanity and peaceful coexistence.

I've experienced kindness that changed my narratives about how people care only for themselves and care less for others. I understand it's not easy sacrificing for other people's wellbeing but then we need to extend helping hands to one another in the society to better the life we are all living in.

I went for my industrial training in Jos, Plateau state. I was supposed to rent an apartment for the period of my stay there because I had no relative staying in the city of Jos. Just when I was clueless about the place to stay for my Industrial training, my friend reached out to me that I can come and stay with him because he is now working in Jos and he has rented an apartment close to my industrial training location. I was so excited, he lifted a huge burden of expenses for me and has made things easier for me.

To me that was an act of kindness because not everyone will harbor another person in their home for more than a week looking at the economic situation and how people love to keep their privacy. I can feel comfortable with someone I vibe with all the time and it won't be a challenge for me to harbor them in my house as long as we ain't going to be burdens to each other. That was the same case for my friend, I stayed for 6 months in his apartment without paying him a dime, that was enough for me to realize that kindness is a good way of life.

I had an opportunity to come to the aid of someone in a situation almost similar to mine and truthfully, I didn't hesitate to help.
Someone I know connected the person with me and asked me to please help him for just few days in my apartment in school pending when he will get his own house and go. If someone helped me by keeping me in their house for over 6 months why won't I be able to help someone for just a few days or weeks in my house. When they solicited my support, immediately the thought of what conspired between me and my friend popped up immediately and boom, I was ready to help!

I tried to some extent to take care of his feeding for the period of time he will be staying with me because kindness is something I believe if you show it to one or two persons it will return back to you in one way or the other. To me it was a privilege to extend hands to him just like I was helped. I hope you find some meaning from my piece, thank you for always sticking around dear friends..

In helping others we get to rise, some friends will avoid you so that you will never know their place but your friend didn't do something like that, you are kind as well because you didn't hesitate to help someone too

Yeah... Kindness is supposed to be transferable, if people are kind to you you're supposed to be kind to others too and even if people aren't kind to you, kindness can begin with us..🙌🙌

It's rare to see someone who will help us in this country if someone does kindness to us we must transfer it to someone who also needs it, helping someone we don't know where God will take us because of the kindness we are showing to people.

Moving to a place where you don't have any acquaintances or family is something really challenging, today I see in some neighborhoods here in the city, many don't even know the neighbor next door, something that in my neighborhood, as the majority are long-time residents, practically the Most people know each other and take care of each other, congratulations on your attitude of helping others, this will certainly make a lot of difference to the person you helped
