Why Imagine Humankindness Prevails?

If you begin to look for the good in people and in your life, it will be noticed and amplified.

At IHK, when we speak of kindness, we speak of friendliness, generosity, consideration, and compassion.


We are programmed to pay less attention to the good throughout our day. Our brains catch the drama, the crisis, the sniff of menace. We remember the moments of discomfort and unrest, and sometimes to our own detriment.


When you stop to breathe and reflect, there were 100 nice things people did around you today to make your life and world flow. 

Real Life Examples: 


  • Merge friendly BMW on the Interstate. Thank you!

    Crossing guard at a local school, holding back traffic for both students and neighbors. Thank you!

  • The post-game moment when the kids all give a sign and move on to congratulate their friends on the winning team. Thank you!

  • The neighbor who picked up your amazingly interesting package from porch pirates while you were on a camping trip. Thank you!

  • The postal worker who recognized it was your P.O. box and kept your keys aside until you nervously came back to retrieve them. Thank you!

  • The local merchant who anonymously donates ice cream to our NPO luncheon. A neighbor shoveling our walk on an icy day. Thank you!

  • A smile from the lady at the clothing store when nothing fit that day. Thank you!


…And many more, once I begin to make note of them.


You get what I am saying.


If you begin to look for the good in people and in your life, it will be noticed and amplified.


Begin to witness the kindness pulsing throughout your day, happening around you. Feel the soul-nourishing appeal of seeing yourself as a precious and interwoven part of a lovable, imperfect human family; it's your choice.
