It's Time For Kindness



Kindness is an act that we should be showing and practicing everyday with everyone. We spend so much time running around with blinders on and don’t pay attention to those around us who may need our help. There are those who expect everyone to help them, but won’t lift a finger to help anyone else. People take things for granted and just think everything will be handed to them or they are not going to help anyone because no one helps them. Well it has to start somewhere. You can be the big person and offer to help. As they say it’s a two way street. Do something nice and kind for someone and it will be returned to you. Someone will do something nice for you. This is all part of giving and receiving.

 Kindness is a simple act. It can be as simple as holding a door open for someone, saying hello to a stranger, picking up something someone dropped, allowing a car to pass before you, offering a helping hand, be that ear to listen to a friend, that shoulder to cry on. Whatever it is practice kindness. If we all did this, the world could and would be a better place. We all need to slow down a little and really pay attention to the little things.
