Kindness In A Fairview Community Analysis

352 Words2 Pages

I have felt that I have experienced impact of kindness in the Fairview community I live in, by working with the autistic kids in the elementary school. I have not only felt like I have shown kindness to these kids but in return, I have seen these kids show kindness back.

Kindness does not have to be giving or doing something for someone else, but kindness can be as “little” as showing interest and investing time in another 's life.

Also addressing people with a title such as Mr. or Mrs. can show them that you respect and maybe even look up to the person making them feel like a good role model for a young person. Offering to help someone who appears to be having trouble with something could make them feel that they don’t have to do everything on their own and that others are willing to help them out.
