“I run a Dungeons and Dragons group for neurodivergent folks in my local community and someone dropped off some coffee, tea bags, mugs and biscuits for us to use.
It was such a kind thought and gratefully received by the whole group.”

A friend and (diff day) a group of strangers made me cry in a good way this week:
They saw me in a mask and put on masks without making it my problem or making me feel awkward or asking if I wanted them to. The friend was outdoors and put on a mask before I even saw them coming. I didn't realize they don't always wear masks outside now, but they've never made it my problem at all. The strangers simply put on masks and passed a mask to the 1 person there who didn't have one.

Another visitor to the city asked me to take her photo in front of Basel Cathedral.
Small acts of kindness like this are powerful if we notice them. That’s why we share at least one story of kindness every single day here - to help remind you that good things are happening.
Hit follow to bring some positivity into your feed.
The inside of Basel Cathedral, a tall building with domed white ceilings and large set of lights hanging from it in a circular wooden frame. One the floor there are many chairs in the main portion of the cathedral.
Sarah, a woman with light skin tone and long grey hair tied back, standing taking a photo in the plaza outside Basel Cathedral. Some other people are walking around in the area.

Treat every person
with kindness and respect,
even those who are rude to you.
Remember that you show compassion
to others not because of who they are,
but because of what you are.

What kindness do you see in your local community?
Once a year, Sara walks through New York City carrying roses, not for a cause or a holiday, but to see strangers smile.
In parks, on the subway, in line at a coffee shop, she offers each woman a flower. Attached is a handwritten note: "You are seen. You are enough. Keep going."
Reactions vary. Some people smile. Others cry. One woman, after a long pause, whispered, “I needed this today more than you’ll ever know.”

There is a lot of kindness in the world and once you start to notice it, you'll realise it's everywhere. And when you see kind, you feel better. And when you feel better, you perform better. So it's good for individuals and the businesses they work for.

What kindness have you seen today?
I was sitting by a lock on the River Thames and I noticed a boat come through and then start to do a strange reverse manouver. Then the man driving the boat called out to someone on the other side of the river and asked her to press the button to close the gates.
I realised he was trying to reverse to press the button himself but when she kindly did it for him he carried on down the river.
