There are good people who put their heart into everything they do. You recognize them for the sparkle in their eyes, for the color of their smile and the love they put into every gesture. They are those people who are always ready to warm you up even before you realize that you are cold, those who make you smile in sad moments and who are always willing to brighten up your dark days.
People who heal, magical people, good people. Those who hug you to recompose your broken pieces, but also to remind you that they are always there ready to rejoice in the good things that happen to you in life. People who accompany you along the way, discovering precious nuances in emotions and showing each time wonderful places to discover and points of view to deepen.
Good people whose connection with us involves much more than just sharing time: a real creation of magic. Experts in caressing the soul without touching it and very good at the incredible act of giving from the bottom of the heart.
Let's talk about good people, a real gift for each of us and sometimes our best coincidences.
"If you see something beautiful in a person, say it, that person may be in a war that prevents them from seeing their own beauty and you can save them."

Goodness as a sign of superiority
The greatness of people is drawn in their heart, in their ability to give themselves to others through gestures of authentic goodness whose sole purpose is to make them happy. There is nothing greater and more comforting than helping.
That's how good people are. Distinguished by goodness as a sign of superiority and by patience as a strategy for understanding others. They do not put pressure, they do not shout or force, quite the opposite. They know how to interpret silences, respect times and act as support when someone needs them.
“At the highest point is affectionate kindness. Just as the moonlight shines sixty times better than the stars, loving kindness frees the heart with a strength sixty times more effective than the responses of any religion. "
-Buddha Gautama-
Good people spread calm and a feeling of well-being with their mere presence. Furthermore, they have a secret passion that they rarely reveal: observing the twinkle in the eyes of those who have found happiness.
Charles Darwin already stressed the importance of this value. He considered it the strongest and most precious instinct, what allows the survival not only of humanity, but of all human beings. The problem is that this value is not often put into practice nor is it highlighted by the people who do it. But this goodness is the only factor capable of enriching us.
There are so many gestures full of love and goodness that go unnoticed!
“Good people know about unconditional love and acceptance. They know of affection, of big hugs that make you squint your eyes and crack a smile. These people know about friendship, love and family.
They know they "are by your side to grit their teeth together" and they trust you even when you yourself have stopped having them. They are those people who do not prevent you from dizziness or falling, but who support you with the right words that only those who have learned from their injuries know. "

The power of compassion in good people
Compassion is another hallmark of big-hearted people. Putting yourself in others' shoes, wishing them free from suffering, and taking responsibility for doing something for them are some of the wonderful gestures that distinguish good people.
These people they feed on love, however, meaning it in its broadest concept: love granted in a disinterested way. Without wanting anything in return and taking pleasure in doing it. It is a genuine desire that comes from the bottom of the heart and which is solely aimed at doing good.
The Tibetan teacher Thinley Norbu Riponche describes this ability very well: “The essence of love is the compassion of the sublime beings who always give energy”, while Thich Naht Hanh speaks of it as “true love”. And this is precisely what it is about.
"No ingratitude imprisons a great heart, no indifference tires it."
-Leon Tolstoi-
Good people are filled with compassion, kindness and love. They are the ones that, despite the distance, you can feel close to them because they are able to break physical limits to connect with your interiority. Those that perfectly combine empathy with the art of understanding pain, a skill that makes them able to decipher our every break or injury. They are artisans of harmony and happiness, capable of turning all their senses and feelings to others to transform an ordinary day into an extraordinary one.
Gestures full of love are their best weapons, fruit of the nobility of their hearts. Thanks to them they fill the soul of others with positive energy, without asking for anything in return. The only thing that makes them happy is to give affection, without any return, for the simple fact that doing so makes them feel better.
Good people are the architects of the most genuine and sincere love that can be obtained. Real treasures that each of us must know how to treat with the utmost respect.
Thank you good people, thank you for giving us one of the greatest gifts: your company! Your value is incalculable.
"I learned that people will forget what you said, they will forget what you did, but they will never forget how you made them feel."
