World Kindness Day is November 13. This world needs as much kindness as possible, so I think it’s fantastic that the World Kindness Movement came up with this reason to celebrate back in 1998.
Change the World
Do you feel like you can’t make a difference? Think again.
The littlest act of kindness has a positive effect on the recipient. So much so, that research shows they are likely to perform an act of kindness for someone else that very day.
One act of kindness has a ripple effect that makes your one little act of kindness powerful.
It feels good to be kind. It feels good to be the recipient of kindness.
As Barbara De Angelis once said, “Love and kindness are never wasted. They always make a difference. They bless the one who receives them, and they bless you, the giver.” Talk about a win-win!
Be kind, and know that you can make a difference in this world.
