Showing kindness for people in everyday life.

The definition of showing kindness means to be friendly, generous and understanding of situations and how to help someone or show kindness to anyone who is going through a tough time in their life. The ways I have learned to show kindness is to be helpful and understanding of others who are talking to me and listening to how I can help them in a tough situation. This year being a senior in high school I always try to find a way to help an adult by brightening their day with a smile or saying something to them that I have noticed them do for a student that was showing kindness or helping me out with something I might need during the day. Showing kindness can go a long way in life in general in today’s times where someone might need help or might need a little bit of confidence in themselves so doing something like an act of kindness can really make someone's day or help make their day in a positive way. The good thing with showing kindness as a young adult is I can teach others a little bit more on showing kindness to other people with the tough times last year on how I helped a lot of the teachers in my school stay positive throughout the tough times.
