Little kindness
Born 2006, F, from Lahore, PakistanAs the school bell rang, signaling the end of another day, Sana and Emma walked home, lost in their own worlds. The sun cast a warm glow over the streets, and the scent of blooming flowers wafted through the air. Suddenly, Sana's gaze fell upon a scruffy stray dog rummaging through a trash can. Her heart skipped a beat as she rummaged through her bag, pulling out a bun she had saved from lunch. She gently approached the dog, offering the treat. The dog's tail wagged hesitantly, and it devoured the bun in one bite.
Emma, walking alongside Sana, noticed the exchange and raised an eyebrow. "What's that you're doing? It's just a stray dog," she said, her tone laced with indifference. Sana's eyes sparkled with conviction. "You see, Emma, this bun might seem insignificant to us, but to this little one, it could be the difference between life and death. My little kindness can save its whole life." Emma's expression softened as she watched the dog's eyes light up, its tail wagging furiously now.
"I never thought of it that way," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. Sana smiled, her eyes shining with empathy. "Sometimes, it's the smallest acts that have the greatest impact. We might not change the world, but we can certainly change someone's world." As they continued their walk, Emma noticed the way Sana interacted with strangers, offering smiles and kind words. She realized that Sana's kindness wasn't limited to the stray dog; it was a way of life.
The story of the bun and the stray dog lingered in Emma's mind, inspiring her to spread kindness wherever she went. And as they parted ways at their street, Emma turned to Sana and said, "You're right; little kindness can indeed save a life." Sana's smile was all the response she needed, a reminder that even the smallest acts can ripple out and change the world, one bun at a time.
