In a world where you can be anything, be kind.

This wonderful story was posted on Facebook by a woman who witnessed a random act of kindness in her gym locker room between two strangers with little in common.

"As I was washing my hands in the gym bathroom, I observed an interaction between a female Hispanic janitor and an Asian lady that was getting ready to leave. Both females were in their 40's or 50's and spoke very broken English. As the Asian lady was leaving, the janitor commented on how pretty her jacket was. Next thing you know, the Asian lady whipped it right off and made the Hispanic lady try it on. She then proceeded to hyper her up, telling her how well it fit her and how good the color looked on her.

Before the Hispanic lady had the chance to take the jacket off, the Asian lady stopped her and told her that she can keep it, saying she had another jacket at home already. Having asked for nothing in return, she picked up her gym bag and left.

After watching the encounter, it made me so grateful to have such kind and genuine people in the world. These ladies never met before and had nothing in common, yet they both spoke the language of kindness.

This just goes to show how small acts of love and service can sometimes leave the biggest imprints in our lives. So in a world where you can be anything, be kind."
