“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.

⭐Hi, if you’re still here (yippee), I’d like to invite you to check out my other newsletter, the After 21 Club. I describe it as “A sweet retreat where Friday meets you on the way to life's little pleasures. Reviews, recommendations, and thoughts to share from multiple generations.” I hope you will visit and sign up, if you wish. Articles come out on Fridays. Check out the archives.⭐
Hi Heather, The lists are great - it seems like kindness and humor are especially important these days.
Lots of great Kindness ideas. I like to compliment strangers, support writers, charities, volunteer, help out when possible. I do return the grocery cart to the stack when I’m finished with it.
