Kindness is Contagious

I'm a huge fan of kindness. Making a positive difference in someone else's life is something I strive for in my day to day living. My husband and I have made it a goal to complete one random act of kindness each month, with nothing expected in return. It's had such an impact on our lives, and made us happier people. 

When I met Diana about a year ago and learned about her Be Nice movement, I knew I wanted to take part. Diana has created boxes customers can buy to spread kindness, called the Be Nice Box. She wrote a blog about completing 365 acts of kindness, which led to her creation of the boxes as a way for others to share in her efforts. 

"As the blog was growing, I was falling in love with the idea of completing good deeds & spreading kindness. I was finding that I was happier, feeling more grounded & really feeling rooted in my community. I wanted to find a way to share that feeling with others across the country. After some brainstorming, the Be Nice Box was born!"  


Through my business, Taea Made, I contributed 100 fiber art bookmarks for this quarter's Be Nice Boxes. My hope in taking part in this project is that it will inspire others to do good and share their talents with others as well.







Let's take a look at the Fall Box I received!

(My favorite part of the box! 30 different kindness tasks :.)

I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to take part in this project. Thank you to Diana for asking me to contribute, and for spreading kindness!
