Loving Kindness - Are You A Kindness Warrior?

2/3/2014

44 Comments

Two things have inspired me to continue a ripple of kindness that's been brewing lately.

#1. Recent snow storms and record low temperatures have provoked some truly awesome acts of kindness across North America, and here are some examples:

Picture
Washed and folded blankets left on a park bench for the homeless in D.C.
Picture
Free coffee offered to passers-by in Alabama snow storm.
Picture
"Yarn Bomber" leaves knit scarves around Ottawa with the note "If you're stuck in the cold, take this scarf to keep warm!"

Picture
Atlanta Publix keeps doors open all night so stranded drivers can sleep and stay warm.
#2. I'm celebrating being mentioned on the blog of Kelly Rae Roberts as a "Kindness Warrior".
(Kindness Mission #3)

  Kelly will be featured in the Oprah whole-hearted living series with TED talk sensation Brene Brown as part of her e-course on "The Gifts of Imperfection".  This was such a fun surprise and inspired me to pay it forward by honoring other Kindness Warriors.

Here's how to participate!

#1.  Subscribe to the NGD Newsletter (if you are already subscribed, ignore step 1)

#2.  In the comments below, share an act of kindness that you have either committed, witnessed, received, or read about. You can tell the story, share a link to one that inspired you, or even nominate someone you know. A couple of story contributors will be chosen at random to receive something fun for participating.... (Hint: It has something to do with a favorite new find of mine :-)

Thanks for sharing the loving kindness,
