r/kindness

Hi!

I’m so happy you found this post. I’ve had so much kindness shown to me that I want to spread it and have it reach those in need.

However well you’re doing today that’s awesome! Reward your efforts. Very few things in life are easy.

Listen to your favorite song. Throw on your favorite movie. Reminisce on your favorite people and characters. Life is full of dope things.

Treat yourself how you’d treat a friend.

Just know someone out there loves you. No matter who you are.

I couldn't find any other reason than the fact that people will take your kindness for granted. Give me more reasons please?

😁

What is the best advice you have been given that changed your life for the best?

Am I the only one? Ik it sounds weird but idk why it happens

Please greet my friend happy birthday, they didn't celebrate or anything and they also took away his tablet 😔 her name is Samarah, if yall could greet her it would mean the world to me.

It’s gonna be okay 🫂

I was just curious.

My life has had its fair share of suffering. Probably more than most, but certainly not more than some.

I choose kindness because I don't want others to feel what I have felt.

Growing up watching others suffer and being powerless to intervene has made me very vigilant and protective of others.

Does this resonate with anyone?

Edit:

Thanks for all the comments. It was lovely to read your different experiences and nice to see my own reasoning be shared by a few of you.

Never stop being a good person. 🧍

A few days ago, while waiting at Al Wakra Hospital, I witnessed something that quietly restored my faith in humanity.

A little Arab boy, barely 4 or 5 years old, was sitting with his father holding a hot dog he was hardly eating. Nearby, another little African boy of the same age sat with his father, happily playing around.

The little boy said something to his father in Arabic. His father smiled, took another hot dog out of the bag, and handed it to him. The child then walked gently toward the African boy and gave it to him with the purest smile.

The other child accepted it with joy.

No one asked for anything. No words were needed. Just a small act of kindness from a child whose heart had already learned compassion.

That moment melted my heart. Sometimes humanity survives in the smallest hands.
