Positive vibe spreads


Show respect to those who don't deserve it: not as a reflection of their character, but as a reflection of yours. ( Dave Willis )

You do good things, you help people, you hold your dignity, you smile to people, you show good character, you respect people, you hide their fault, you praise people, you motivate people, you be there for them, you do your job excellently, 

You thought there's nothing for that? 

I bet some time in your life, it turns to be not as good as you wish to. Sometimes you just start to question your very own self. Why are you still doing these? You kept asking, what for? Why wasting time doing good deeds?

You don't see the reward, you don't get any kind of award for that. They don't even say thank you. Or perhaps, not even realize your kindness. Then, why keep doing it? 

Yes, because God ask us to.

But of course, as a normal human being, sometimes we just like to question every single thing. Not that we don't believe in what we always hold. But it is just because sometimes doing good take a lot of energy and courage to do it. You don't see why you are still doing it while most people don't even care about it any more these days.

Put your hand on your chest. Say thank God. :)

Yes, you should thank God for this. This is golden. Yes, that thing behind your chest is Golden. Your heart is the greatest asset. Thank God for that. 

With out you realizing it, you actually inspire people. Though you don't see it today, believe me, someone actually was looking at you and admire your character. They wish they were kind just like you. They wish they have the courage to do that. They wish they aren't that selfish.

Most people choose not to come upfront to you to tell you the truth, they were just shy or can't stop thinking about being someone like you. They need time. 

Even if someone came to you and challenge your standings, speak kindly. Do not give up, but do not yell at them. Use wisdom to fight back. When someone came to you  and express their uncomfortable feelings about the goodness in you, be glad, your character and words actually successfully touches their heart and give impact on them.

Do not get surprised when one day, they come to you again, while you no longer recognizes them anymore, they said thank you. And because of you, they changed. Do not expect flowers and chocolates when doing good deeds. Expect the reward only from Allah, and when the perfect time come for you to know what's the effect of you being nice for all this while, you will find, that is happiness truly about. 

Yes, positive vibe spreads, though not as quickly as the negative vibes, it spreads.
It gives impact on people and can be life changing. Have faith in what God asked you to do. Do it sincerely. One day, you'll be more than happy having done this all this while, and you perhaps will question your own self. Why didn't you do more.
