Now more than ever it's cool to be kind.
A random act of kindness can spread happiness, boost your mood and give you that warm and fuzzy feeling.
And who doesn't want that?
Research shows that small acts of kindness can have enormous power for person being kind as well as the recipient, whether that's a stranger or someone in the same family.
The more you give, the more positive you feel.
This, in turn, fuels greater happiness.
People who witness or benefit from someone's kindness and compassion are also more likely to be kind themselves.

It's a ripple effect, uplifting and inspiring not only the giver and recipient, but also anyone who witnesses or hears about it.
It's true - we all love hearing these good news stories.
Many studies have found that kindness, compassion and giving are associated with a stronger immune system and good mental health.
Things we all need right now. Another way to be kind and compassionate to those in need is to "pay it forward" which means that instead of paying someone back for a good deed, you do a good deed for someone else.
The possibilities are endless and create a snowball effect. Did you know our Leeton Community Op Shop is delighted if you purchase a coffee or a meal and pay for an extra one for those who are presently doing it tough?
How cool is that. Leeton is such a kind and generous community, let's challenge ourselves to bless even more people with random acts of kindness and hope they too will pay it forward to someone else in their own special way. Kindness. Let's continue to sprinkle it around like confetti.
