“If you believe LOVE makes the world go round, then each act of kindness is a revolution.” – Kevin Kinnebrew
Kindness can be transformational! Take this example of a UPS employee named Dallen Harrel who took time out of his busy delivery schedule to stop at a home and leave a video message for new mom Jessica Kitchel using her doorbell camera. The message took all of 20 seconds and then he left not expecting anything in return. It turns out that Kitchel was exhausted and Harrel’s message made her day. She uploaded the video to social media to share his kindness with others, and it was quickly viewed by 60,000 people.
But that’s not the end of the story, of course! Dallen just had a new baby as well. So, Jessica decided to reach out to her network again with his baby registry link and almost all those items were purchased by people Dallen had never met. Another surprise quickly followed when Dallen received a promotion at work. This all happened because of a casual act of kindness!
