The world today is just too rude. We need to change our ways and start being a little more kind to everyone. It can be as simple as a smile to someone on the street, or holding the door open for someone behind you.

Showing people this kindness can brighten up their entire day. If one person is nice to people, they will be nice to others. This will spread if we all do it. This is what the world needs.
