The Big Book of Kindness

Watercolor texture 2

My mother's the greatest that I've ever known. I think God made my mother like He'd make his own. A praiser, a helper, an encourager too, Nothing in this world that she wouldn't do.

To help us succeed, she does all that she can, Raised a young boy now into a man. I want to say thank you for all that you do. Please always know, Mom, that I love you.

One song can spark a moment, One whisper can wake the dream. One tree can start a forest, One bird can herald spring.

One smile begins a friendship, One handclasp lifts a soul. One star can guide a ship at sea, One word can frame the goal.

One vote can change a nation, One sunbeam lights a room One candle wipes out darkness, One laugh will conquer gloom.

Be a friend. You don't need glory. Friendship is a simple story. Pass by trifling errors blindly, Gaze on honest effort kindly, Cheer the youth who's bravely trying, Pity him who's sadly sighing; Just a little labor spend On the duties of a friend.

Be a friend! The pay is bigger (Thought not written by a figure) Than is earned by people clever In what's merely self-endeavor. You have friends instead of neighbors For the profits of your labors You'll be richer in the and Than a prince, if you're a friend!

Kindness is the key to peace and harmony in family life.

My puppy has a doghouse Just outside my door. He licks me when I pet him And wags his tail for more.

You are my brightest shining star!

I love my Grandma She is smiley and sweet She gives me big cuddles And may be a treat! She is one of kind! The nicest by far! I am glad She is my Grandma! She is my shining star!

He's always there beside me, No matter what I do. My puppy is my special friend And family member too.

One step must start each journey. One word must start each prayer. One hope will raise our spirits, One touch can show you care.

One voice can speak with wisdom, One heart can know what's true, One life can make a difference, You see, it's up to you!

Be a friend. You don't need money; Just a disposition sunny; Just the wish to help another Get along some way or other; Just a kindly hand extended; Out to one who's unbefriended; Just the will to give or lend, This will make you someone's friend.

Three things in human life are important: the first is to be kind; the second is to be kind; and the third is to be kind!

He is always there. He is always aware. He is honest, he hasn't lied. He has those days when nothing goes his way. He always learned the hardest ways. He knows what to do when I have no clue. He is the one I look up to. He is my grandpa! He is always true! &nbsp;

Family By Glenda Campbell

There's a special kind of closeness that only families know, That begins with childhood trust and deepens as you grow. There's a special kind of happiness in sharing little things, The laughter, smiles and quiet talks. that daily living brings. There's a special kind of comfort in knowing your family's there, To back you up, to cheer you up, to understand and care. Of all the treasure life may bring, your family means the most, And whether near or far apart that love will hold you close.

Be mindful. Be grateful. Be positive. Be true. Be kind.

It has no ears to listen, No heart to understand. It cannot bring you comfort Or reach out a helping hand.

So when you ask God for a gift, Be thankful that He sends, Not diamonds, pearls, or riches, But the love of real, true friends.

Spread a little kindness Laura Jaworski

Spread a little kindness, Sprinkle as you go. Send it out into the world, Watch it ebb and flow Plant a kindness garden, The more seeds that you sow You'll find that your own happiness Will grow, And grow. And grow!

My Cat Gentle eyes that see so much, Paws that have the quiet touch, Purrs to signal “All is well “ And show more love Than words could tell. &nbsp;Graceful movements Touched with pride, A calming presence By our side. &nbsp;A friendship that takes time to grow. Small wonder That's why we love him so!

The best of friends Can change a frown Into a smile, When you feel down.

The best of friends, Will understand Your little trials, And lend a hand.

My Best Friend is special! My Best friend is sweet! My Best friend is smart! My Best friend is neat! If you want a best friend, You need to be one too. Be kind, be helpful. And just be you!

A mother is special; she's more than a friend. Whenever you need her, she'll give you a hand. She'll lead you and guide you in all that you do, Try all that she can just to see you get through.

Good times and bad times, she's there for it all. Say head up, be proud, and always stand tall. She'll love you through quarrels and even big fights, Or heart-to-heart chats on cold lonely nights.

Kind hearts are the gardens By Henry&nbsp;&nbsp;Longfellow

Kind hearts are the gardens, Kind words are the roots, Kind thoughts are the flowers, Kind deeds are the fruits. Take care of your garden And keep out the weeds; Fill it with sunshine, Kind words and kind deeds.

Dog Poem Abby Jenkins Black and white Thick and furry Fast as the wind Always in a hurry! Couple of spots Rub my ears, Always comes when his name he hears. Loves his ball,it's his favorite thing. What's most fun for him? Everything! Great big tongue that licks my face. Has a crate, his very own space. Big brown eyes like moon pies! He's my friend till the very end!

I`ve got a dog, His name is Jack. His head is white, His nose is black.

I take him out Every day. Such fun we have! We run and play.

Such clever tricks My dog can do. I love my dog! He loves me too!

My little eyes are watching All you say and do. And when I grow up big and tall I want to be like you!

My little ears are listening To everything you say . I am learning how to grow up To be like you some day!

So be careful how you teach me To be the person that you are. You’re knight in shining armor! You are my brightest shining star!

Just a little bit of kindness Can go a long,long way. Just a little bit of tenderness Can brighten up a day. Just a bit of praise where it's deserved Can bring a happy glow, Just a hand held out can give some hope To someone feeling low. A forgiving word, a handshake, A pat upon the head, Can take away a heavy heart And bring a smile instead. Just a little bit of kindness Can go a long, long way. Just a little bit of tenderness Can brighten up a day.

This woman is as beautiful as can be. She's always been there for me. Yeah, she's my mother , my best friend too. Without her in my life, I wouldn't know what to do.

Her heart made of gold, giving love so freely; can't be bought or sold. No matter who you are or what you do, She's there to listen and help you through. Can't express how great she is to me. Without her, I don't know where I'd be.

No one like her, my best friend, my mother.

"My Parents" Brittany W. You are both special in every way, Encouraging me more and more each passing day.&nbsp; You both are the reason why I’m so strong. With you two at the helm, not a thing could go wrong.&nbsp; Thank you both for always being there And showing me that you truly care.&nbsp; Words could never explain how I feel about you, But I hope you know that I truly love you two!

I can talk with a friend and walk with a friend and share my umbrella in the rain. I can play with a friend and stay with a friend and learn with a friend and explain. I can eat with a friend and compete with a friend and even sometimes disagree. I can ride with a friend and take pride with a friend. A friend can mean so much to me!

We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals.

I LOVE MY FAMILY SO MUCH To be a part of a family like mine Is so divine! Where love is shown, Hurt is shared, Our love for each other is never impaired. We are a family full of strength, A family full of love, A family no one can touch, That's why I love my family so much.

The kindness boomerang

A helping hand, A heartfelt smile, The kindnees you give Comes back in a while. Like a boomerang Winging throught the air, The people you help Send you love and care. When you show kindness, It's very true: Others show kindness Back to you.

Friendship is a priceless gift That cannot be bought or sold, But its value is far greater Than a mountain made of gold.

For gold is cold and lifeless, it can neither see nor hear. And in your time of trouble, It is powerless to cheer.

How to Love Your Little Corner of the World Eileen Spinelli

Help a neighbor. Plant a tree. Hug your friends and family. Be kind to pets. Feed the birds. Use your please and thank you words. Share a book. Take a walk. Someone’s lonely? Stop and talk.
