What does kindness mean to you?
Is it a smile, a helping hand, a thoughtful gesture, a moment of sharing or simply being there for someone?
Who or what can we show kindness to? A friend, a stranger, an animal, nature – or perhaps even ourselves?
YOUR CHALLENGE
Capture a precious moment that expresses kindness. Look around you! Sometimes the most beautiful acts of kindness are the smallest ones, and they happen when we least expect them.
Share your photograph on this Padlet and let us see the world through your eyes!
