With wide eyes, I looked out for little kindness opportunities that I often otherwise would overlook, and found several. I offered to pick something up for a neighbor as I knew they needed something in the area that I was visiting. I saw someone on the elevator who was carrying something heavy and helped them deliver their things. I made conversation and a smile with someone in the subway who was looking unkempt and who others were avoiding. I took steps to help a friend who is struggling with their business. I wrote notes of encouragement and gratitude to folks who I work with. None of these acts of kindness were particularly large; they were, however, appreciated. And what I took away from this day, more than anything, is how MUCH kindness is available to give in every hour of every day if you are thinking about the kindness mindset. Today, I was inspired by Alex, and I hope to carry this inspiration forward in the days, weeks, and months to come.
