You can see the astonishing power of kindness in this video, this social experiment that showed that (most) people are truly good.
The video above, called "The Honesty Test," was shot in Opole, Poland, and was posted to YouTube earlier this month. In the video, a man drops his wallet in public 50 times and records how many good Samaritans out there returned it to him.
The Polish at the beginning translates to "Hiya! In this video we'll check people's honesty and see who'll give me my wallet back." Forty-nine people didn't even hesitate to do the right thing.
Our ability to be kind is a fundamental part of being humans. A simple smile, shared with a stranger, brings happiness to two people. From there, it spreads like the ripples on a pond disturbed by a pebble.
"A little kindness from person to person is better than a vast love for all humankind." - Richard Dehmel
Changing the world one act of kindness at a time!
