Eight ways to show kindness without spending money

It is World Kindness Day! The occasion is celebrated annually on November 13 to highlight and encourage individuals to practice kindness in their daily lives.
In this often harsh world, showing kindness to oneself and others is crucial for creating a fair and better society.
However, as we celebrate World Kindness Day, this is a reminder that acts of kindness do not require an expensive price tag. There are several non-monetary ways to show kindness, after all, it is the intention behind these actions that truly matters.
Here are simple, non-monetary ways to show kindness to others.
Provide encouragement
If you know someone who needs encouragement or support, encourage the person today.
Encourage them to pursue their goals and dreams. To make it even more intentional, you can encourage them through a handwritten letter. Let them know you see the good things they are doing and it will encourage them to do more.
A few words of encouragement can boost someone’s confidence and motivation.
Reach out
Make a random phone call to someone and everyone that matters most to you.
Yes, you talk every time through social media, but when last have you heard the person’s voice or spoken to the person over the phone?
However, remember that a heart-to-heart phone conversation can not be compared to text. Through phone calls, you tend to be able to read the person’s voice and read the person’s feelings better.
Offer compliments
Complimenting someone’s achievements, appearance, or positive qualities is a simple yet effective way to spread kindness.
Pay stranger honest compliments in random places you find yourself and watch how you put a smile on their faces, it will not hurt you.
Listen
Lending an empathetic ear can be incredibly meaningful and helpful.
Take the time to listen attentively when someone needs to talk to you, don’t judge, and give useful advice when needed.
The only thing some people need to feel better is to share their feelings with someone who will listen without interruption. So you can be that one person that makes others feel better today.
Volunteer
If you have a little extra time in your schedule, you should try to volunteer.
Dedicate some of your free time to a cause you are passionate about, it could be a charity or a community project.
You can also offer your help in the form of skills, where you make use of your skill to put a smile on people’s faces. For instance, if you can paint, you could help paint an orphanage home.
Donate unused items
Your unused items can turn out to be someone’s most needed items, so donate them out.
Also, many people can not afford to buy items at full price, so donating your items to them will make a difference in their lives. It will also help clear some of the clutter and free up some room in your house.
Offer to babysit
If you know any parent, especially those with young children, the best thing you can do for them is to offer to babysit.
Offering to babysit is a wonderful and meaningful way to show kindness. Parents often face various demands and responsibilities. However, offering to babysit gives them a break, allowing them to relax, run errands, enjoy some personal time, and focus on self-care.
Donate blood
Donating blood is an extraordinary act of kindness that directly contributes to saving lives.
There is a high need for people to receive blood, blood banks and hospitals are constantly searching for blood donations. So, as long as you are healthy and meet all of the other regulations, you can give blood to show kindness.
Each donation has the potential to help multiple patients in need of blood transfusions.
Remember, the little things matter. So, perform an act of kindness and help someone smile today.

Isreal DMW’s estranged wife reveals cause of split, calls him ‘two-minute man’

Sheila David, the estranged wife of Isreal DMW, has shared her side of the story on what led to her marital issues with him.
On Saturday, Isreal, the logistic manager to Davido, announced that his one-year marriage to Sheila had crashed.
The logistic manager said Sheila “deceived me into thinking I could have peace with her”.
Isreal also accused Sheila and her family of extorting him.
Responding to the allegations via her Instastory, Sheila accused Isreal of “physical and emotional abuse” while they were together.
In the lengthy post, she claimed she was “locked out” of her home for no reason and “constantly threatened”.
Sheila also asked the public to hold her estranged husband should any harm befall her or any of her family members.
She claimed Isreal brought hoodlums to invade her mother’s shop to assault her.
Sheila also said she never had issues with him over Davido but “only told my husband to get something doing!”
She said each time she tries to encourage Isreal to be “productive” and venture into “business”, she gets the impression that “them no dey control Edo man”.
Read her account below:
“If anything happens to me or any member of my family Isreal should be held responsible. Going to my mums shop to beat her up?? You wan kill pikin kill mama join?? This isn’t even something to be quiet about at this point!
“I was going to post this just yesterday! I held back because aside involving the police I reached out to someone I believe could reach him and would act on it, I say make Ino forward so I don’t get the “oh you shouldn’t have brought it online”.
“This man carried boys to harass my mum at her shop. I’m not here to run y’all a whole story of what went down, and what has been going on!
“The only thing @isrealdmw can brag about and still brags about is the online publicity he has given me that is undisputed. Alot of you only got to know me during the wedding.
“Have I always been in the social media space though? Yes I’ve been a two times beauty queen and had brands I was working with already! Was my mother ever married to anybody before my dad? NO!
“Did anybody deceive Isreal? NO INSTEAD ITS THIS MAN THAT DECEIVED THE WHOLE FAMILY!! Especially my father who took a genuine likeness to him!!!!
“My papa no be Otedola but we’re comfortable enough for him to be training two of my siblings in renowned private universities, running businesses and paying every bill that needs attention without begging
“Must I add that I’m from a well respected family! And this man is hell bent on painting my family what it’s not! Adams Oshiomole and my dad are first cousins for crying out! So me and my family aren’t looking for a “poverty alleviation plan” and even if, it cannot be Isreal.
“This man saw me for the first time while I was on outreach which before hand I never knew of his online presence. He asked for my number which I refused to give but took his instead and never called him.
“Only dropped it off at the follow up unit after which I travelled that very day and wasn’t back till the next week and this man dey find me up and down until he got to my dad.
“He carried all kind of certificates from church claiming to be born again that he’s different oh he is this oh blablabla my father fell for it because oh he’s our church member and he has done this and that.
“That very day he told my father that he wanted to marry me, infact even before he met my dad he told the person that helped him get to my father that he wants to marry me.
“You can drag me to the mud and back make I for lock up but you don’t get to do that with my family!!! YOU DONT!! Clearly you don’t value yours but you know how much I value mine and in extension how I value your own family too as I’ve taken them as mine.
“And anybody wey dey do “you can handle this better”, when e reach your turn, do it as you like.
“When your parent’s especially your mum is being constantly abused by your supposed husband! When you’re being locked out of your matrimonial home for no reason! When you’re physically and emotionally abused! When you’re constantly threatened! When your mental health is on zero! When you have series of panic attacks! When you’re accused of taking pills to not get pregnant! When you’re deprived of doing anything! When you marry a man that gives no account of how the money realized from your wedding was spent! Or how much e be at all at all or o see wetin I use am do! When you marry a man that all you want for is the best but he is the weapon fashioned against you! When you marry a man that doesn’t want to be productive and when you try to push and encourage him you’re controlling and in “them no dey control Edo man”. When you experience your own do as you like.
“You people are used to women showing weakness but I’m sorry I can’t give that and I would never throw a pity party! So let the Barbie called @isrealdmw throw a pity party and y’all can go feed on the lies he’s serving.
“Lastly, I NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH HIM SERVING HIS BOSS. As a wife I only told my husband to get something doing! Get a business running start building a legacy, gave him countless ideas on things he could possibly do. I just wanted him to have something going on for himself which his family fully supports as it’s a concern to everyone.”
In a follow-up post on X, Sheila referred to Isreal as a “two-minute man” while threatening to wash their dirty linen in public.
“Since Isreal has decided to bring this whole issue online let me start dropping evidence, You said I forced you to marry me because I was a virgin. Should I also tell the whole world how you are a 2 mins man?” she asked.
“Just few days ago you were begging me to forgive you, now you took The whole issue online, I will be posting all the evidence soon. Let’s see how it goes.”
