The date for World Kindness Day is November 13, and it was chosen for a reason. Indeed, in 1998, a conference was opened in Tokyo for the first time under the auspices of the World Movement for Kindness.

What does the World Kindness Movement do?

An organization of volunteers and volunteers that spreads its activities around the world, inspires people to do good deeds. The Kindness Movement was first performed in Japan in 1997. Anyone wishing to make a sincere, noble deed could join this action. After the Third World Kindness Conference was held in 2000, this movement was given official status.

Doing good deeds is hard?

Definitely not: doing good things is incredibly easy, the main thing is to start. After all, good is not measured by money and does not even always require a lot of time spent. Warming someone with your smile, raising the mood of a loved one or, conversely, a stranger, is also a good deed. World Kindness Day is included in the calendar as a holiday only to remind us to do useful things. But each of us should adhere to this position for 365 days a year.

Good ideas

If you're serious about dedicating your entire day to doing only good deeds, here are a few tips. Spend World Kindness Day helping others, making your loved ones happy, and enjoying life yourself.

To achieve harmony:

• Don't turn on the TV, give your full attention to the child.
• Call your friends and tell them how important they are in your life.
• Go outside and just take a walk, giving passers-by a smile. Perhaps World Kindness Day will inspire you, and then you can add compliments, flowers, beautiful balloons or delicious sweets to your smile.
• Make your own or buy a bird feeder and install it.
• Plant a tree. And passers-by will be able to rest in the future in the shade of its branchy crown. And if you choose a fruit tree, then people can also enjoy delicious fruits.
• Collect everything that is not eaten (of course, it's great if there are more bones) and put it in a separate container, and then take it to the trash can. And stray dogs will be able to feast to their heart's content without having to struggle to find food.
• Translate grandmother across the road. Just don't forget to ask if she wants to get on the other side of the road.
