Stories of Kindness from Around the World

River Cleanup


--by indigomom, posted Jan 19, 2020
Today I practiced kindness in a small but meaningful way. I took my 12 year daughter for a walk on the river behind where we live.

We spent 30 minutes walking along the banks and picking up litter and cigarette butts. I was also able to connect with my daughter in a very authentic way (which is hard to do with preteens) and connect with nature.
It was a kindness for the earth, for my daughter and for myself!

We all know that kids and grownups learn not from our advises but from action but seldom follow it.

Your love for mother earth, your daughter and for yourself as well shines brightly.

Thanks for sharing, so others gets inspired to follow suit.
