Five acts of Kindness Anyone can do!
1 I’m Sorry
Saying you’re sorry, is not only good manners – It is also a way of being kind! How you may ask? When we say sorry, it breaks the tension that exists between you and another person. It allows the opportunity for a relationship to restart; more importantly a fresh start with no bad vibes. Saying sorry also shows your level of emotional maturity. It allows people to respect and connect with you at a much deeper level!
2 Please and Thank-you
Here is another example of these words go way beyond good manners. Have you ever experienced a proper please where people are literally begging you and a proper thank-you where people literally want to sacrifice themselves for what you did for them? Get out of the routine of just saying “please” and “thank-you” say it heartfelt; like you mean it! You could write a card, send a gift to let people really know how much you’ve appreciated them and their assistance.

3 I love you
We should tell our nearest and dearest in your life how much we love them. We shouldn’t assume that they know this. Life is short; we should take the time while we are able too. I think it’s unkind to withhold such important information.

4 Greet and smile
Smile and greet a stranger, its amazing how we go through the day not smiling or not greeting the person behind or in front of us in a queue. Sometime we work at an office and do not greet a colleague? How many times do travel in a lift with someone and not bother to greet!

5 Listen
Another act of kindness is to listen intently when someone speaks too us. Often we try and answer a matter before we hear it out. One of the highest forms is of respect is to listen with our full attention involving all our senses.

Such easiest things to do to be that kind person right? Saying I'm sorry, please, thank you and I love you and to be a good listener. Awesome sharing!

Thank-you Ainie, most children get taught this in every home, from a very early age. Every home does this then the world will be a beautiful place. Just five easy things; it's all it takes, yet we have managed not to get this right all the time... so sad!
Thank-you for the "awesome" gif... I feel like a 5 year old receiving such a great gift!
You are most welcome and take care :D
This so very basic, there should be no excuse why we cannot do these simple things... You have hit the nail on the head, exactly! We should be ashamed that we still need a lesson in this! well done!
