“Sometimes kindness isn’t in your face. It’s more subtle. It’s Kinda Kind.”
The Kinda Kind Series is about talking. And not talking. About gestures. And expressions. And sounds. And silence. It’s about all the curious ways we communicate. And sometimes it’s about just being Kinda Kind.

“I alone cannot change the world. But I can cast a stone across the water to create many ripples.” ~ Mother Teresa
Can you count how many ripples of kindness were created by one small act of kindness from a young boy? (The answer is in the comments)
🐇 Lessons From the Rabbit Hole
This young boy wasn’t thinking about changing the world. He just saw someone in need and he offered a little kindness. One small kindness at a time. Viewed by someone else who then offered one small kindness. Viewed by another. And another. Little by little, the world around him was changing for the better. Because of one small act of kindness.
May you be the recipient and the giver of one small act of kindness this week.
WILL YOU SHARE RIPPLES OF KINDNESS?
Please hit the Restack Circle and encourage others to share kindness this week. Together we can start with one small kindness that becomes a ripple that changes the world.

How many kindness ripples did you count? There were at least 30 before everyone showed up to help paint the wall. That’s about one kind act every 5 seconds.
Hello friends. You have already created ripples of kindness for me just by being here. Thank you.
This week I’m going to say ‘good morning/afternoon’ to everyone I pass while I’m out for a walk. Let the ripples begin! Have you had some ripples this week?
People are so kind during this time of year. Why not make it the rule instead of the exception?
Lovely video. I don’t want to toot my own horn but I do this wherever I go— except the parking lot or gas station. There have been hold ups and car jackings in these places so I switch my KM mode to AA— Alert Awareness. It takes little energy to be kind and it feeds my soul.
