Kindness Starts With One®

It was the winter holidays, I went sliding in front of my house. I saw a bird frozen to a metal pole. I could tell because it didn't fly away when it saw me. I blew on its feet to warm it up. I took it in my hands and blew once more on it. I covered it since it...

St. Patrick’s day this year happened over my children spring break.

I was walking outside in the rain and I saw a small kitten in a corner between two stores. I really felt bad for it because it was really cold out too and I didn’t see anyone around. So I decided to take it home and asked my parents if we could keep it and they agreed. Whenever I think...

I woke up one morning, brushed my teeth, ate my breakfast and got ready to go outside to take a little walk. My family wanted to join me so I decided to let them come with me without hesitation. After 15 minutes of walking, I started to notice how there was several litter on the ground. I didn’t think about...

One day, at a local Panda Express, we were about to pay for our order when the old woman in front of us paid forward for our order. She told us to continue the kindness. So when a group of people came in, my dad paid forward, and told them to continue the kindness.

I was on the way home. It was raining severely and a man was walking home with groceries. I stopped the car and asked did he need help. He smiled and said yes, please. I took him home and I was happy I got to help him.

Hey there,

For Valentine’s month, I’ve been collecting knit and crochet scarves that people no longer want and using them to “yarn bomb” messages of love around my city.

I’ve always been saddened by the lovingly made scarves at the Goodwill Outlets, which are the last place where donated items are sold before being thrown away or sent overseas. I...

I noticed a woman at the dollar store register looking very weary as her credit card repeatedly got denied. Finally the store cashier put her bag to the side and asked her to wait while she helped other customers. It was obvious the woman had little and definitely didn't have the money for her, mostly food, order. I offered to...

In the beginning of the pandemic I wanted to do something to help others. I had volunteered in some capacity since I was fifteen years old when I read to people who were blind. I saw an opportunity when our town formed a Covid Response Team. I was ready.

To me, random acts of kindness means a lot. Being liked by most of the people in my class means one thing to me, but at least one person saying something nice or funny just lightens my day. This week on a random act of kindness bingo I chose 4 things that would either make me feel loved or cared...

My high school classmate started a LARK group. The gals meet once a month to donate money and have dinner together. Each month one member takes the donation money and select an act of kindness to donate the money towards. It can be anything, an organization, someone in need, random people, or something or someone on their heart. It is...

I have a few medical conditions that require me to use a cane. I'm "only" 68 years old, and wish I could still walk and run like I did throughout my life. Whenever I approach a door someone always holds it open for me. I feel so lucky to live at a time when people still care about each other,...

There was an evening that it snowed while I, and other women, were attending a bible study.
