Kindness

Kindness is something we all have in our hearts. God made sure to equip us all with a ton of kindness to spread around. Kindness is magical. It's good for the soul for all who experiences and gives it.

Kindness is everywhere. Good is everywhere.

A stranger smiling or saying hi.

Someone holding a door for someone.

Someone paying for someone's meal at a restaurant.

Helping an elderly woman cross the street.

A barber giving free haircuts to the homeless.

A kid giving up his seat for a pregnant woman on the subway.

Buying a family member or friend lunch.

A man on the subway giving the very shirt he's wearing to a cold homeless man.

People helping animals who need it.

A woman walking home on a rainy day let's an elderly man walk with her under her umbrella.

Letting someone in on the interstate so they don't miss their exit or can merge in stress free.

Helping a stranger out if they have their arms full.

A customer tipping extra because the waitress/waiter is having a hard and busy day.

Someone simply saying please and thank you and being a nice person.

These are just a few of the many many acts of kindness I've seen on news and in real life in just the past 24 hours. Kindness is everywhere. Kindness is contagious. When someone experiences kindness they are more willing to spread it. Random acts of kindness are something people never forget. For example this past winter I was at an intersection that had high snowbanks. Cross traffic did not stop and since the snowbanks were taller than my car I could not see if it was clear. The driver of the car across the intersection was kind enough to signal when it was clear so I knew when to go. It made a potentially dangerous situation into a safe one. And it's something I'll never forget.

Kindness is like confetti. It's everywhere. People are kind. Examples are everywhere. Let's make this list grow. Throw your kindness confetti in the air and let's celebrate love, kindness and happiness.
