When was the last time you geninuely asked someone "how are you?"
I was about my usual my wakawaka some days ago when I bumped into a good friend of mine, we havent seen in a while so you can imagine how we shouted and laughed, the usual handhsakes and hugs took place and I asked "how you dey na?" he responded "oh boy I dey o" and we continued trying to catchup but somehow I knew he was not fine, I could tell even though he did well to hide it but something kept telling me he wasn't as fine as he was potraying.
So I said "baba I dey hungry oooo, make we go chop" he wanted to say no but I insisted. I delibrately took us to a place where I would go to eat only if its a special occassion. We ordered for Amala and I knew he wouldn't want to eat much so I ordered to eat well so he can do same. We had a good fill of Amala, Ogunfe and assorted with juice to step down....
After eating, I asked again "oh boy how you dey na" he responded "Rain na the first food wey I go chop since yesterday morning be this...."
No be everybody wey dey smile dey happy.
Genuinely ask someone today "how are you?"
Say something nice to soneone today
Offer to buy a meal for someone today
Send recharge card to someone today
You don't know how far that small act of kindness will go in that person's life
