Kindness II

Kindness is so important for all of us. When you show care and concern for another, doing for another or putting someone else before yourself, these actions create a kindness ripple affect. Acting with kindness allows others to do the same and not only does it create more kindness in the world, but it also is a mood booster. Behaving in a positive manner especially to others makes you feel great! It makes you more confident just knowing you made someone's day or put a smile on someone's face. Even if the other person doesn't appreciate your kindness, you still did a good deed. Being kind to yourself is also important because you are important. So treat yourself and do a good deed, because kindness is very much needed, for all.
