Kindness day is celebrated across the world annually on 13th November. An international effort to commit to random acts of kindness.
This Friday marks World Kindness Day, an international efforts to commit to promote kindness act towards people and planet. World Kindness Day presents us with the opportunity to reflect upon one of the most important and unifying human principles. On a day devoted to the positive potential of both large and small acts of kindness. To highlight the good deeds in the community focusing on the positive power and the common thread of kindness which binds us.
Sometimes it takes only one act of kindness and caring to change a person’s life
Kindness To The People
Being kind doesn’t need to look or be extravagant. Sometimes the simplest things make the most significant difference! Here are a few simple ideas and ways to be helpful on World Kindness Day in the workplace, at school, with your loved ones, or even while out running errands. Look for opportunities while you go through your day to infuse kindness into someone’s day. It’ll change their day and yours for the better!
Being kind can strengthen your relationships and sense of satisfaction in life.
Kindness includes being kind to yourself. Do you treat yourself kindly? Do you speak gently and kindly to yourself and take good care of yourself?
Kindness To The Planet
I got it. It’s becoming harder and harder not to hear the words climate change these days. The world seemingly declining faster and we are living the legacy of troubled-planet after decades of misconducts and negligence. As a result, we are pressed (hard) to make change in our daily lives to fix our planet.
So what can we do ? Plenty !
While David Attenborough keeps telling us to love mother nature, showing love and being kind to the planet don’t have to be BIG, loud, things. I strongly believe that every one of us are already practicing sustainability , in our own private ways.
Every little conscious decision made by all of us create the change we want – slowly as it may feel, positive results always bloom. Every time you grab your reusable shopping bags, you are being thoughtful. Saying no to plastic straws or cutleries at your favourite restaurants is a bold, form choice. When you decide to rehear your denim one more day, you have made a conscious decision save a little bit water and electricity – both which take resources to produce and make.
Protecting our planet starts with you. Begin with little things. Easy things. Obvious things. We need more do-ers, who have the enthusiasm and optimism to explore possibilities to make the world a better place, to bring more happiness to the communities they belong to, or to create a better environment. Every tiny action matters to show kindness to the planet. It’s a good infectious bug to have !
