Dalai Lama once said, "This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness."

Kindness starts with humanity and as a human, it is our duty to spread awareness not only by sharing quotes & blogs but also with generous acts because kindness gives hope to those who think they are alone in this world.

It is one of those things that you can't give to others if you don't have it yourself. All positive things are inspired from within. Every day, speak to yourself with kindness and confidence. Follow the people who inspire you to become a better person and take any criticism positively in order to improve yourself.

Kindness Day was born when a collection of humanitarian groups came together on November 13, 1997, and made a "Declaration of Kindness". Likewise, on Kindness Day everyone is encouraged to make a similar declaration. We can show extra kindness to ourselves and others by performing the following acts in our daily lives:

• Always provide a helping hand
• Give someone a genuine compliment
• Cook food for your friends & neighbors
• Be a good listener
• Feed the stray animals
• Donate food and clothes
• Find out a way to make someone smile

A random act of kindness costs nothing, but the impact is significant and long-lasting. You never know what someone is going through, and a few kind words from you can help someone much more than you think.

On this note, Today, go out and do something good even a little to yourself and for others, and set a good example. Spread love and make the world a better place than ever before.
