Jim McFarland Joliet says practicing random acts of kindness, however small, such as smiling at a stranger or keeping a door open for someone, is a great way to bring about social change and impact. I am willing to bet that those who receive an act of kindness will pass it on to spread a better mood and treat those around them with more kindness than usual. Giving an elderly person time to sit down, talk and listen, to spray kindness as if it were confetti, or his own story of survival and how we fight our own battles, will resonate around the world.
