Holiday Circle of Kindness

  


A Holiday Gift that Benefits Us All

Written by SurfWriter Girls Sunny Magdaug and Patti Kishel

When you're kind to others it spreads beyond them and ultimately back to you – creating a circle of kindness that enriches, energizes and restores.

 


Just like recycling gives new life and purpose to the things we have, so do acts of kindness give new dimension and meaning to our own existence.

 


The holiday cards, personal notes, and gifts that you take the time to send can put a smile on someone's face as they are sorting through the bills and advertising notices.

 


Stopping by a neighbor's house to leave a piece of pie or homemade cookies on a doorstep can make their day.

 


Offering to pick up something at the store for someone who can't get out can provide sustenance and relieve anxiety.

 


Phoning to say Hello or texting messages and photos to friends and loved ones keeps them included.

 


Picking up trash when you're walking on the beach or in the park makes it safer and prettier for the next person.

 


However you build your circle of kindness, now is the perfect time to do it during the holidays when everyone needs something to feel good about.

 


In the end – when your kindness comes full-circle from other people's actions – you will find that one of those who benefits the most is you.
