World Kindness Day
"The date decreed for World Kindness Day is 13th November.
This was the opening day of the first World Kindness Movement? conference held at Tokyo in 1998, and the 35th anniversary of the Small Kindness Movement of Japan, which brought the signatories of the ‘declaration of kindness’ of the World Kindness Movement together in 1997.
The purpose of World Kindness Day is to look beyond ourselves, beyond the boundaries of our country, beyond our culture, our race, our religion; and realise we are citizens of the world.
As world citizens we have a commonality, and must realise that if progress is to be made in human relations and endeavours, if we are to achieve the goal of peaceful coexistence, we must focus on what we have in common.
When we find likenesses we begin to experience empathy, and in such a state we can fully relate to that person or those people.
While we may think of people from other cultures as being ‘different’ when we compare them with our own customs and beliefs, it doesn’t mean that we are any better than they are.
When we become friends with someone from a different culture we discover that despite some obvious differences, there are many similarities."
