November 13: World Kindness Day  - Make Kindness the Norm

World Kindness Day is a global observance dedicated to promoting kindness and the importance of being kind to one another. People celebrate by performing random acts of kindness, spreading positive messages, and encouraging compassion in their communities.

How to celebrate World Kindness Day:

• Perform random acts of kindness: Buy a coffee for the person behind you, help a neighbor with groceries, or leave a kind note for a stranger.
  
• Spread appreciation: Send kind messages to friends, family, or colleagues to let them know you appreciate them.
  
• Volunteer: Offer your time to a local charity, homeless shelter, or animal shelter.
  
• Support local businesses: Show your appreciation by supporting local businesses and sharing positive experiences online.
  
• Promote kindness online: Share positive messages or write encouraging emails to people who may need a boost.
