Never forget about the kids of Dhaka

Yesterday I was shocked by the amount of negative words that came pouring out of my mouth when a friend asked me how I was. It stopped me. I swore I would never complain about anything after I saw the poverty in Dhaka during a short visit there in 2009. There are so many things to be grateful for.

I believe that whatever it is we put out in the world will come back to us eventually. If it is kind words and a helping hand - we've got nothing to worry. Here a compilation of some qoutes about kindness

I like. I hope you enjoy them as well!
