The Kindness Movement

One of the benefits of being a One Kind Act.com Team Member is that I get to interact and meet people from around the globe, an opportunity I might not otherwise have had. There are numerous sites and Blogs dedicated to kindness and making the world a better place for all. From time to time, I find something special that I want to share with our visitors and beyond.

Not to long ago, I was introduced to Pam Thomas, founder of Make the Most of U. Pam is a Life Coach who's passion is to help people find the assets and capabilities within themselves and around them, to move forward, accomplish goals, overcome obstacles, defeat fears, and create opportunities.

One day, while reading some of her "thought provoking" posts, I noticed a button on the side of her Blogs that read, "The Kindness Movement, Kindness is Contagious…" Needless to say, I was extremely curious and quite surprised when I clicked on this button.

Pam has created a fantastic presentation on Kindness, which will make you stop, think, and take action.

Be sure to visit The Kindness Movement, take some time and reflect on what you have seen. I am sure you'll it will motivate you to take a step in the direction of Kindness.

Thanks to Pam Thomas from Make the Most of U for allowing us to share her Kindness with everyone.

*After watching this presentation please be sure to stop back and give us some feedback, or maybe a story of how this inspired you to perform a kind act. Just the simple act of sharing your story, makes more of a difference then you'll ever know!

Kindness A Two Way Street

Kindness - A Two Way Street
by Matthew Costello

Most people who know me, know that I don't personally write a lot of the content on this site, however, I sometimes want to share a personally experience and after hours and hours of trying to make my article perfect, I finally decide to post what I've written in hopes my message is loud and clear.

The other day, I received an email from a dear friend praising this site and the goal of One Kind Act. I had to read the email a few times before it finally sunk in. My friend whom, I've never met in person, and lives in another country, was sending me a message, knowing that at that time, I was very frustrated with the growth One Kind Act, and wondering if the site and concept would actually, grow far greater than I could ever imagine.

In my mind, I was questioning if it was time to let go or to keep moving at this pace, and hope that someday things would change for the better. His powerful message filled with motivation and inspiration reminded me that kindness is a "Two Way Street," something I sometimes forget. I have spent so much time trying to be kind to others, that I was not allowing myself to see just how kind people have been to me.

I very much believe in having an Attitude of Gratitude and practice this each day. I am very grateful for many things, especially over the past two years, which has been these most challenging time in my life and continues still continues to be. I have always known that kindness, is a "two way" street; however, the message from my friend, which arrived right on time, was like a giant flashing sign, flashing the words, "look at all of the kindness that surrounds you!"

So, what I am trying to say that in our quest to be kind to others, and make the world a better place, lets also take the time to see all of the kindness that we receive, sometimes in return for our kind acts, and sometimes from another who simply wants to be kind.

Kindness is not only a powerful force, it is a "two way" street that we need to drive down, from time to time.

Thanks to all who have been so kind.
