As you can see, being kind isn’t just awesome, it’s easy. Kind acts and words don’t have to be dramatic to have a dramatic impact, and really brighten someone’s day. Holding the door open. A handwritten note of encouragement. A silly joke to cheer them up. A surprise gift of cookies. Or simply a heartfelt smile. We always try to be kind and think the world can never have too much kindness. The best thing we can do is celebrate life, and show others that we care. Kindness ideas and opportunities are all around us, we just have to have an open heart.
