I love getting flowers, and my most favorites of all are the ones my middle daughter would pick for me. Even a bouquet of dandelions would take precedence over any other bouquet because they were a depiction of my daughter’s love and kindness. What a huge impact a simple gesture can make.

And this week’s kindness challenge reminded me of just how simple and easy it is to brighten someone’s day in just a few minutes, and even seconds…

A simple smile to a stranger you pass on the street.
A compliment which makes a person’s eyes light up.
Lending an ear to someone who needs to talk.
A hug….

Kindness is service, and the funny thing is, as we serve others with kindness, we are also serving ourselves because of how good it makes us feel.

But what I valued the most this week by focusing on kindness, was that it also helped me during challenging moments when I was feeling down….by taking the attention off of my problem and focusing on others and thinking about what I can do to brighten their day.

The best things in life truly are free….
People most likely won’t remember what you said or what you did, but they WILL remember how you made them feel.
