Recently I’ve taken the time to make sure I do something that makes my friends smile at least once a day. Not because I want them to do something nice back, but because I like seeing my friends happy, especially if they are having a bad day. It not only makes their day a little better, but it also makes me smile. It takes very little to be a kind person. It could be as little as asking someone to eat with you in the dining hall or as thoughtful as going to Rite Aid just to get your friend candy because she’s having a bad day. I promise you, one little act of kindness not only means the world to people, but also puts you in a better mood for the rest of the day. Here are 10 easy ways you can spread kindness

  • Ask someone to sit with you in the dining hall that’s sitting alone

  • Send a nice text to someone who really needs a smile

  • Buy them their favorite coffee

  • Offer your help in something they are struggling with

  • Be there for them

  • Compliment your friends

  • Tell them every once in a while how much you appreciate them

  • Listen to them

  • Don’t hold grudges

  • Always have their back no matter what

With these simple acts of kindness, you will not only have a better relationship with your friends but also feel good that you put a smile on their face.
