description This short communication reflects on this year’s mental health day. The theme for this year is ‘Mental health is a universal human right’.

It is hoped that by insisting on such deeds we could spread kindness in our community to make it a safer place for living and make life more enjoyable regardless of its all difficulties and limitations.
