I carried out an act of kindness for someone a few years back and I can remember it as though it was yesterday and I have no regrets about it whatsoever to this very day. It was before a test that the class had to take was and I was in college so a classmate of mine was having problems with a question dealing with the history of Renaissance art (it was an art history class) and the question was (if I can remember it), was whether any of the artists like DaVinci (Leonardo), Raphael, Donatello or Michaelangelo knew each other during that time of the artisan period and I told her I would have to look that info to see what was what.
I did find some info on each of the artists and saw that although they came through the same period and their works kind of entertwined, they didn’t exactly know each other, BUT they all came from different parts of Italy and the artwork and projects that they created would be learned and understood many, many years from now so the question that I’m assuming would be asked is how did the works of four of the most world famous artists be admired yet they didn’t know each other personally? I got back with my classmate and explained to her how.
The day the test came we were both ready and hoping to get it over with, because history like that that occurred hundreds of years ago doesn’t stay with you and it can be forgotten no matter how hard you try to remember. We took the test and would get the results in a couple days. The couple days came and we got the results that stated that we BOTH passed! I was happy, but my classmate was grateful for what I did and the act of kindness I carried out in order for her to not only get us to pass, but to let her know that I had her back whenever she was stuck on something and THAT was definitely the kindness I carried out…☺️☺️☺️
