Wednesday Is World Kindness Day

Today (Wednesday 11/13) is World Kindness Day.

World Kindness Day was first observed in 1998.  It is celebrated every year on November 13.

While it’s probably not a bad idea to be kind every day, on this day in particular, we are encouraged to try to make the world a better place by “celebrating and promoting good deeds and pledging acts of kindness, either as individuals or as organizations.”

What can we do?  Here’s a few ideas…
