World Kindness Day is coming! 

November 13 is World Kindness Day and it could not come too soon given the year and a half long as well as still counting COVID-19 pandemic.

Even better, unlike last year, World Kindness will not be on a Friday the 13th even if one could easily argue that such was especially fitting last year.

And better yet, it really does not take all that much effort to be kind.

For example, something as simple as opening the door for someone who is carrying bags or smiling and letting someone go first.

In other words, just practicing what used to be considered common courtesy would rate as kindness.

And when it comes to one’s friends, reaching out with a call or giving a hug are certainly viable options.

Finally, being kind to others makes one feel better and thus there is no excuse for not being kind to others.
