“My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.”
– Dalai Lama
Kindness is a simple, yet powerful thing. Kindness can change
a person’s day, it can bring some joy in the most desperate situations, it brings the world together and shares love.
Simple acts of kindness make a difference. I live in a fairly big city, where some days it seems everyone is only thinking of themselves. Impatience, stress, anger, entitlement… Other days I see kindness everywhere. Is it just my state of mind? I try my best to be as kind I can be, but I know I have my off days, where I just want to be in bed and not interacting with others.But more times than not, if I find a little kindness in my heart and share it with someone, anyone, I feel so much better afterwards.
I challenge you to try it out. Be kind to someone today. Try doing something kind for a complete stranger, without the intent of acknowledgement. Make kindness your religion.
I wish we could put this on a billboard and yell it out to the mountains. We should all be more kinder, the outcome is far greater than we can imagine!
If only kindness was more abound, this world would be a much happier place.

I agree Nadine. One of my other favourite quotes is: “Be the change you want to see in this world” -Gandhi. I hope my kindness will spread and others will pass it on or “pay it forward”. Thanks for your comment 🙂

It’s one of my favourites. So simple, yet so true.

Thanks Aimee.
It should be on a billboard 🙂
So true. A little kindness goes a long way and even the smallest things can totally change a person’s day.
A little kindness does go a long way 🙂
