This note is in my phone notes. I put it in this blog so I can find it more easily later.
10 Ideas to do kindness:
- Organize a clean-up event in your community.
- Pick up litter in your neighborhood or local park.
- Plant a tree or start a garden to benefit the community.
- Offer your skills or services for free (e.g., tutoring, fixing something).
- Teach someone a new skill or hobby.
- Encourage and support someone’s dreams and goals.
- Write positive reviews for local businesses you appreciate.
- Help a friend or family member with a project.
- Offer to drive someone who doesn’t have transportation.
- Share homemade meals or treats with friends and neighbors.
Of course, there are other ideas that might be more suitable for you, but I think these 10 are a good ideas to start.
Why should we show kindness? Even more, why should we be kind to people who don’t even care about us? Or maybe, why should we care at all?
Some people help others because they truly care, while others help because, in some way, they care about themselves to feel good.
It doesn’t matter to me because I follow my belief, and my belief tells me to become someone who can be useful to others.
There are literally hundreds, maybe even thousands, of ways to do good in this world. Being a good mother, a father who provides for his family, a teacher, a sanitation worker, a driver, and many others, can all be valuable forms of kindness.
If you are doing what you believe is kind, don’t judge others who you think aren’t. You never know what others are doing. Just focus on being better for yourself.
