Like this West Village sign says, “If we all do one random act of kindness daily, we just might set the world in the right direction.” What a great reminder to see when walking down the street. Thank you Natalie for sharing this great picture with us!
Hamas recently issued a statement depicting their losses in the war. According to the report, Israel killed 250 Hamas members at police headquarters and another 150 security personnel were killed. These numbers match IDF estimates. Previous to this report, Hamas overestimated civilian deaths and underestimated the number of Hamas operatives killed to prevent demoralization, but in either scenario, the deaths associated with the war are incredibly tragic.

A recent New York Times Magazine cover article promoted many self starters working to fill voids in the developing world who embody the old slogan “where there’s a will, there’s a way.” By quoting stories of D.I.Y. volunteerism (as in, Do It Yourself), Nicholas Kristof makes it clear that a passionate and determined individual holds tremendous power. Although Kristof reveals that many of the self starters who set out to do good, run into many obstacles along the way, and although he the large possibility of failure in tackling the world’s largest problems, the reason this article is so inspiring is because it presents the possibilities that exist for those with a open heart and creative mind. This article is really worth a read; the philosophy that one person can change the world through KINDNESS, is exactly what we believe in here at KIND.
