When you share positivity, people will appreciate it and, in most cases, pass it along to others. A smile, holding a door for someone, or paying for another person’s morning coffee, can quickly turn into a chain reaction that brightens hundreds of lives. And it all begins with your small act of kindness. Invest just a few seconds or dollars and know that your impact is reaching far beyond the one smile that you just saw.
This is such an important message! Kindness matters. Kindness is non-political, non-judgmental and essential for life. Thank you for sharing this message today, Kathy. Beautiful, and much appreciated!
True, kindness is a tool we all own, and the more we use it, the more people we help. Happy people are giving people. And the more we give, the more we help and the better our world will be.
Yes indeed wouldn’t this be a better world with kindness, when driving I am courteous, when on foot I speak to others and hold doors open for others. Trouble is rarely do you even get a thankyou, especially from the younger generation or when driving women barely acknowledge a courtesy. It won’t put me off though because like you I believe in kindness.
All we can control is how we act and how kind we are to others. Even when it is not returned, we can hold our heads up high knowing that we did our best to pass along kindness and courtesy. My hope is always to pleasantly surprise someone with a small act of kindness in the hopes that they continue the trend. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, Ray!
