Where Did Kindness Go?

Hey, my friend,

Sometimes it feels like people have forgotten how to be kind. Maybe someone was rude to you today, or you smiled at someone and they didn’t smile back.

Maybe people seemed too busy to even look up. When things like that happen, it’s easy to think that kindness doesn’t exist anymore.

But here’s something I want to tell you:

Kindness is still out there, my friend. It just isn’t always easy to see.

It lives in the small things like a stranger who holds the door open for you, who helps someone pick up something they dropped, or who checks in when a friend looks sad.

And sometimes, if we want to see more kindness in the world, we have to be the one who shares it first.

When you do something kind for someone else, you’re not only helping them but you’re also helping yourself feel a little better.

Being kind makes your heart feel full and it reminds you that you can make someone feel better and smile, even if it’s just for a moment.

So today, if the world feels a little cold or distant, try to do something kind for someone, like say something nice, be patient, or help a stranger.

Those small things matter more than you think, and when you lead with kindness, you help others remember to do the same.

That’s how kindness comes back to you, my friend.

PS: Ever experienced a moment of kindness from strangers, or did something for a stranger that brightened their day? We would love to hear from you and feature it in a future email. (with your consent)

And, as I always say, stay healthy, be happy, and keep smiling, shining, and showing kindness to yourself and others around you.

Take care,
