You never know what a well timed joke or other little act of kindness will do to the person on the receiving end.  In some cases, like that detailed by ERIU0612 on her myspace blog, some instant messaging with someone is something that she’ll never forget:

I was very sick this past 24 hours and someone who I have just made friends with who is about 2000 miles away did something so selfless that I was reminded how simple kindness really has the power to heal. This person instant messaged with me sending jokes, funny cartoons, music clips and more. It was the perfect way to help me forget about my fever while sucking down gatorade to the tunes of Mary J. Blige and in the end my fever broke. Amazingly enough, this was a man who did not ask me to flash him my gifts or stand and give a spin in front of the webcam or anything of the sort. Just a little laughter, a lot of kindness and good ole fashioned manners… Imagine that happening online today between two people of the opposite sex?!?!
As for the future, at the least I have met someone kind who I will always remember helping me out one night when I just needed a friend.

Are you the kind of person that is showing others kindness?  Then you’re having a far greater impact than you thought!  They say that laughter is good medicine.  I believe that kindness is as well.
