November 13 - World Kindness Day

 

On November 13th, World Kindness Day is a global observation that emphasizes the need to be kind to one another in order to thrive peacefully as a global community. World Kindness Day was initiated by the World Kindness Movement at a 1998 Tokyo conference and has been celebrated around the world ever since. Participants believe that kindness has the power to change the world. 

Last year we went to the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation's website. At the bottom of the page is a Heart!

We clicked the Heart and sent a text to our human Bro (Alex) and told him

YOU are the BESTEST Human Bro' on the Planet!

Love Nutmeg, Marv and Jo Jo

He texted right back that he missed us and could not wait to get home for snuggles! That made us feel warm all over!

Further down the page are some selections and we clicked the 

Keep The Ripple Going 

And we subscribed to the daily Dose of Kindness. 

WE LOVE IT!

Today the email we got looked JUST LIKE ME!

Mom says she loves them, they always lift her spirits.

TODAY, in celebration, I Marvelous, will cuddle on Mom's lap and put my Purrr motor on HIGHH. Then I will head bonk and whisker kiss her!

After I get finished, we are going to do some Random Acts of Kindness (and Senseless Acts of Beauty)!

What kinds of things do we do?

Mom always picks up litter when she takes Nutmeg for a walk

We donate pet food to the food bank

Mom tries to make every sales clerk she meets, smile! (You are so good at your job1)

Volunteer

Instead of selling stuff, we often give away items we don't need. 

I, Marv, purrsonally try to greet all our guests and I purr and rub their legs.

Now I shall have a nap and contemplate being KIND to Nutmeg!
