It’s Mario Monday, but it’s also Random Acts of Kindness Day! In this scene from New Donk City in Super Mario Odyssey, Mario shows a little kindness to someone who needed it. (Source: @knowyourmeme. FYI the ‘friendship bench’ or ‘buddy bench’ is a real thing designed to foster inclusion!)
🍄
And the Dorkly video I shared on Twitter — Mario Goes Berserk (With Kindness) — is worth watching, where Mario takes the opportunity to show kindness to some of his enemies. Yes, it's ridiculous, but does make the point that small acts of kindness can make a big difference!
🍄
Seriously, though, you never know how much a person is struggling. Your kind words or actions could be the ones that deliver a message of hope to someone who is desperate for it, someone looking for a sign that they should keep going instead of giving up.

Take a look at the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation for ideas you can put into action today, the rest of Random Acts of Kindness Week, and every day, all the time. ❤️
