The fun and satisfaction from practicing random acts of kindness has just again entered my life! Do you remember seeing the appreciative look on a persons face and hearing the heartfelt 'thank you' when you have done something unexpectedly kind for them?
And the buzz you get from feeling you have just given expression to a wonderful part of your being?
Have a look at some of this info, and then dive in and join the fun :)
There is no shortage of ways that you can express kindness. You might at first feel a bit stumped when you try to think up ideas, but rest assured you are probably already doing a lot of acts of random kindness without even thinking about it.
Have a look at this brief list, and I bet you'll recognize a bit of you in there :):

"Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see." Mark Twain
"Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love." Lao-Tzu
"Spread love everywhere you go: first of all in your own house. Give love to your children, to your wife or husband, to a next door neighbor... Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting." Mother Theresa
"The best portion of a good man's life... his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love." William Wadsworth
