Most memorable act of kindness you've witnessed?

Kindness is always appreciated.

When people do something kind to you, you are more inclined to pay that kindness forward and do something nice for someone else as well.

So, kindness is a never-ending loop.

What was one moment of kindness you've witnessed that was very memorable to you? (Either one you did or someone else did for you)

The most memorable act of kindness I think fell on the one of the most memorable days of my life. My sister entered anaphylactic shock in a foreign country that we were vacationing in. We were stranded and we were able to get her to a hospital. Problem was that we stayed there until early early morning before she could be safely released. Mind that we were complete tourists in this country and we did not know a single word of their language neither where we were. The doctor however treating my sister was the most kind, although we could not understand him, he made sure we were consoled about my sister's well-being and at the same time giving us a personal transport back to the bus stop. In this otherwise nightmare experience, that doctor gave us hope and empathy: something that I aspire to do and be for other people.

I cannot think of the most memorable act of kindness. I think that every act of kindness, no matter how small or big, is important - because, as you said, it is a loop. When we see someone helping, it can make us help ourselves the next time. It always makes me smile when I see someone helping others or when I can help someone else.

@globalBraid3744 Lovely thoughts! Thanks for sharing. We tend to overlook simple, small acts of kindness so I just wanted to shine the spotlight on those.
