World Kindness Day 2016

When I found out that today was World Kindness Day, I couldn’t help but smile.

What better way to end such a miserable week.

It’s important to voice our opinions and it’s great to be vocal about our beliefs.

But it’s that much greater to be Kind.

Okay, that might just be me voicing my belief,

but in a way that’s pretty much the biggest problem in the world today.

Lack of Kindness.

Think about it, if people were just a little more thoughtful and kinder to people,

If people stopped and put themselves in each others shoes,

instead of just being stuck in their own heads, thinking about themselves,

think where we’d be.

I’m talking about everyone.

If everyone just treated one another with more kindness we can move on to the bigger problems of the world with ease.

If people stopped:

Killing one another,

Injuring one another,

Mentally, Emotionally and Physically abusing one another,

Picking fights with one another,

Name Calling one another,

and

just plain being thoughtless

just think about how much happier we’d all be.

Now, don’t get me wrong this is a fantasy I’m describing to you.

You know it, I know it, my Dog knows it, but I think you get my point.

With that said,

It all starts with a simple gesture

and

what better day to start than on
