About Be kind Day

We created Be Kind Day because we ought to do something nice for people every day.  We think we have to make a grand gesture, but there are many nice things we can do.  However, we get busy and sometimes forget, we think we need a lot of money, or we are nervous to do something nice for someone you do not know.  

This day is dedicated to you some courage and take the time do something to doing something nice for people we do not know.   Meaning we do something nice for someone in ANY economic class:  the Business owner, the actor, police man, or the less fortunate.  We all can do something nice for each other.  Our hope in creating this day to have individual lives touched in a positive way.  Who knows you might make a friend.

Christmas Year Round

There is something about Christmas that brings out the best in all of us. When December finally rolls around and the mistletoe comes out, the child like feeling of wonder and awe is almost palpable. We feel compelled to give someone an extra smile or tip that extra dollar that we usually stinge on. For a moment we all forget about our troubles and give in to the spirit, we remember how good it feels to help others.

My point is this: why wait for Christmas? Why spend eleven months acting like the Grinch when you could have the Christmas Spirit year round? Be Kind Day is quickly approaching, use March 5 to mark the beginning of a new you. Do something kind for the man in front of you, give a compliment, buy the nice hardworking barrista at Starbucks a cup of coffee. Do SOMETHING. Do ANYTHING. Don’t wait for Christmas to remember how good it feels to be kind, make your Christmas spirit last year round. After all, “Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see”-Mark Twain.
