A Buzz About Kindness

"It's a little embarrassing that after 45 years of research and study, the best advice I can give people is to be a little kinder to each other."
~ Aldous Huxley

A couple of weeks ago, a college friend who lives overseas sent me an article about an act of kindness.

At a baseball game in Detroit, a man anonymously bought souvenirs for two children and left them with a note that said, "Thanks for teaching your kids the greatest game ever."

The father who received the note and the gifts wrote that thanks to the anonymous stranger's kindness, the children "now associate the game with not only excitement, drama, and competition, but also with grace, empathy and benevolence."

I love reading stories about kindness and there seem to be more of them lately. Could there finally be a buzz about kindness?
