World Kindness Day - 13 November.

World Kindness Day is celebrated on November 13 every year. The day inspires people to appreciate the kindness and positive power in society. Kindness has no constraints and goes far beyond the feelings of race, religion, politics, and gender. This day help us to move forward in a helpful and kind spirit toward the people. There are many ways in which a person can show kindness toward the other person.

One can be kind to their parents who are providing for you or your teachers who are making you a better human being. People these days celebrate this day by sending messages through social media platforms. It’s an international holiday that is observed in many countries including but not limited to the U.S., Canada, Australia, Italy, and India.

World Kindness Day commenced in the year 1998 by an organisation named World Kindness Movement during the 1997 Tokyo conference. In 2019, under Swiss law, this organisation was registered as an official NGO. Currently, there are more than 28 nations that are not associated with any religion or political ideology. This international event is celebrated in many countries including Canada, Nigeria, Japan, Australia, and the United Arab Emirates. Along with Singapore, India, and Italy celebrated the day in the year 2009.

World Kindness Day takes on a particular theme every year with its vital values. Themes might change, but the message generally continues as before, kindness can change lives. The theme for the year 2023 is "Be Kind Wherever Possible".

The theme during the current year highlights the significance of consideration as a widespread rule that must be practiced on each side of the globe and in each part of our lives. It urges us to convey the soul of kindness with us, on World Kindness Day, yet consistently.
