Opinion – Random acts of Kindness

Kindness makes us happy

It is scientifically proven that being kind makes us happy! Little acts of kindness like holding a door open, letting someone in front of you in a queue or helping someone carry some bags can make you smile. So why not do it more often!

Kindness does not have to cost a penny. It can be totally free. If you like to play bingo online you will love this bingo card. See if you can complete a line of random acts of kindness.

You can also play the ‘pass it on’ game and encourage others to show how much they appreciate those around them.

When I was sent this content, it got me thinking. So as yesterday was Valentines Day, which can be a tough day for some, I personally like to try and think of it in another way, more a day of love than a day of romantic relationships. And yeah, as someone in one of those, I might be able to smugly sit back and say that, but I truly believe it should be a day to tell those who are important to you, how much you love them.

Not that every day shouldn’t be, but it’s a nice excuse to message your favourite people and say I love you. It costs nothing but means so much.

And just like the graphic above, sometimes the kindest things cost very little. I’m going to give it a go and see which ones I can tick off! I hope you do too!

Much Love, B Xx
