Today is Random Acts of Kindness Day. It’s important to spread joy, especially in this strange world. Loneliness and isolation are everywhere, so let’s make an effort to connect. Research shows that being kind to others can benefit us. It also helps those who receive or see acts of kindness. We all have the power to make a difference. Often, it’s the small things that create the biggest impact.
When was the last time you phoned someone for no reason? Or did someone do something without asking? Hearing your voice can brighten someone’s day. A text or a note shows you care. It lets people know they are in your thoughts, and that means a lot. It doesn’t have to be a grand or expensive gesture to make someone feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Doing the dishes or taking the bins out can have the same effect. The gift of kindness works both ways as good for doing good, so it’s a win-win situation.
