When I am down, it helps to show kindness. I find that giving warmth to others is a huge part of growing mentally and spiritually. There are simple ways to impact those around us.

Today, I gave a dollar to a homeless man who is outside on a humid and hot day. I spent time talking to my mother and thanking her for the lessons she has taught me. I then took my daughter for ice cream after not seeing her all day while I worked.

You may find a way to give love to those in your community. It is Mothers Day and you may tell a mother how special they are. There are feelings of hope we experience when we are being selfless. I hope you find something positive to help someone you encounter.
