Jiffyfletch. "Police Officer's Final Act of Kindness Caught on Tape Before Dying" (On the Left)

This video is about a San Diego police who got shot shortly after buying a total stranger a meal from McDonalds.

This should be an eye opener for everyone. The last thing this man did was help a young boy that he didn't even know and expected nothing in return. Little did he know he wasn't going to live another day.

This made me realize that people should always be nice to other people because what if you were murdered for no reason and the last thing you did on Earth was argue with your parents. That's not a good thing to be remembered by. This works in vice versa too, if for example your sibling borrowed something and you were mad at them for that reason. Then the next day you wake up to them not breathing, you wouldn't feel good. Regret, worry, and displeasure would then consume you. The thought of "I should have been a better sibling/ friend/ etc" will constantly haunt you. However if you have more of a positive outlook on negative situations you'll most likely act in a warmhearted approach.

There are stories about people who suffer with depression that considered suicide but they didn't go through with it because a total stranger smiled at them, or even had a conversation with them that made the person with depression to not go through with suicide. You never know the impact you have on others, negatively or positively, so always be kind to others so the people you're kind to are kind to other people and it'll result in a circle of kindness.

Psychology states that if you tell yourself something like "it's 63 degrees outside" resulting in the thought that you should be cold, even if it's not that cold. The same concept would apply if you tell yourself that you should be nicer and live more positive lifestyle within time it would happen.

Never forget, you're time on this planet is not guaranteed. No one will know when they will take their last breath. You wouldn't want the last thing you did to be negative and have everyone remember you by that. Keep a more kind attitude in every situation, it will be very challenging sometimes but in the long run, you'll look back and be content.
