SYNOPSIS: Every day there are opportunities for people to be kind, to show compassion, to lend a helping hand, or maybe even just smile at someone who looks like they are having a bad day. We want to take the opportunity to show the world that being kind has a great effect on everyone’s lives, not just the person doing a good deed, or the person on the receiving end. Kindness creates a ripple. So imagine if kindness literally became a virus… Spreading to each person who saw it, thought it, witnessed it or received it. Imagine the wave it would cause, and how soon the effects could be seen around the world!
