Paying it forward is an act of kindness brought about after someone has been the beneficiary of a good deed, then instead of repaying that person directly, they do some good and kind to someone else without expectation.

Quote of the day:

Trees are the most kindest things I know.

They do no harm they simply grow.

They are the ones who share their sorrow.

We are the ones who everytime borrow.

Let us think more wisely.

The result will show more greenery.

The world is in our hands.

Why not tie it with a friendship band.

You are doing nothing bad you are just saving the world.

Keep in mind you have given your word.

Say yes for saving trees.

God will give you all that you please.

Mannhar Kaur - 11 years old


Riddle of the day:

Journey without it and you will never prevail, but if you have too much of it you will surely fail.

Answer will be revealed tomorrow.

Previous Riddle Answer:

Imagine you are in a dark room. How do you get out?

Stop imagining it.
