Showing Kindness

Don’t wait for people to be friendly, show them how. ~Author Unknown

How can we expect people to know what kindness, love, and giving looks like – if they’ve never been shown it?

People are usually concerned with their problems and lives as they go about their day and rarely stop to think about the people around them.

I propose this: The next time you are at the grocery store and see a woman pushing a stroller, trying to exit the store – hold the door open for her. When you ask someone how their day is - actually listen. They might need someone to hear them out and possibly give advice.

It’s these simple acts of kindness that people recognize and appreciate. Hopefully, the next time they see someone who needs a hand carrying out their groceries – they can pay their act of kindness forward.
