I get that it’s easier to walk through a door and not hold it open for the person behind you or to look-through the cashier scanning your groceries instead of seeing her.

Yesterday I was on a high. And not my usual marker smelling high. I was on a high because we started a Kindness Revolution. And within hours, our #BeKind hashtag was the No. 1 trending topic on twitter. It was amazing watching the #BeKind twitter stream and reading the random acts of kindness being tweeted out.
I just wanted to take a quick sec to clear up one thing. During the height of #BeKind more than a few people tweeted giving me credit for the Kindness Revolution and oh, what a great idea! Let me be abundantly clear...
Kind: Of a friendly, generous, or warm-hearted nature, showing sympathy or understanding; charitable, humane; considerate, forbearing; tolerant, generous
