The Kindness Blog is a place where I go when I want to give up on the human race and all the damage we do. The Kindness Blog is a refreshing oasis in the middle of the whirling sand storms of hate, cruelty, viciousness and anger.

Some of the pictures from the Kindness Blog moved me to tears of happiness and joy. I hope they bring you happiness as well:
