Make Kindness The Norm

"Be kind; everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle."- John Watson

Would you be okay if someone was rude to you? So don't treat others the way you wouldn't want to be treated. It is so easy to judge someone you know nothing about, so think twice before doing something.

Random acts of kindness make much more of an impact then you think. It might not change your life but it can definitely change someone else's. It is so easy to say you want to make change, but it starts with you. The simple things in life make a big difference. Helping someone carry grocery bags to their car, holding the door open for someone, and just complementing someone makes a big difference. Would it make your day if a stranger choose to helped you?

A couple weeks ago I was going up the stairs to exit the station and a lady was in-front of me struggling to carry her luggage up the stairs. Like others I could have walked right by her, but I wanted to help her, so I went to her and asked her if she wanted help and she nodded. So I carried it up the stairs and then once she got up I gave it to her and she had this smile that was priceless. Honesty, it made me have a smile on my face cause I did a random act of kindness and I didn't have to.

Sending a "Good Morning!!"text is a act of kindness. Letting someone know you appreciate someone in your life is an act of kindness. It my seem simple, but it might mean the world to someone and you won't even know it.

I was talking to a friend and they were really down and not really know much self worth they have. But to me they meant so much and I was really sad they didn't know how great they were, so I wrote out how amazing they are and gave it to them. Till this day I get told that every time they come to there lowest, what I wrote to them helps them remember how wonderful they are. To me I wrote that thinking this is just how I feel, but I didn't think I can make someone love themselves.

Never help cause your forced to, do it cause you want to with your heart cause that is when it is true and from you. It is unpredictable what someone could be feeling, just take the chance. Make a change.
