Kindness Does Still Exist

In a world where often times the only stories we here involve heartbreak, despair, and death, it makes a person feel extreme satisfaction to see reporting on the other side of life. We hear how people are rushing to buy foreclosed homes to get a good deal for investment or for their own. We see how the loss of a person's home devastates their life. They find themselves homeless after struggling to pay the bills. I think that often people like to think that these individuals are simply lazy, or that they purchased more home than they could afford, but the reality is that the majority of the individuals losing their homes have come upon hard times of rising prices or loss of jobs, or they simply were given a mortgage that they did not understand.

Yet, today I see that there is still someone out there who believes in kindness. A woman, out of the kindness of her heart, bought another woman's home at a foreclosure auction and gave it back to her. The woman did not ask questions about why she lost the home, or judge her for having lost it. Rather she bid until she won to give this woman back her home. If only those people who have money who choose to sit back and do nothing but judge those who are less fortunate during this time will take an example from this woman's act of kindness.
