One of the things I have observed over the years is that when a kind person gets sick or otherwise faces adversity, people quickly line up to help them. On the other hand, when an unkind or selfish person faces adversity, nobody cares which means they have to face their adversity alone. This can be sad as well as scary. What’s going on here is simple and straightforward. When you perform kind acts for people, you give people a reason to care and when they care, they want to help. I came across a quote on Facebook that went something like, “Which is more important, the journey or the destination?” The answer was, “The company.” When you’re a kind person, you attract lots of company which means you’ll never have to face adversity alone.
