The intentional act of practicing and promoting digital kindness can have a profound impact on the emotional well-being of others and can work towards increasing the amount of compassion that is observed in our fully connected world. A small gesture of kindness can make a huge difference in someone’s day and can quickly change the trajectory of our digital interactions and relationships. Can you imagine if every human being in the world replaced a complaint with a compliment? That would be 7,753,000,000 more kind words in the world. Now imagine if everyone repeated this kindness trend every single day… In just two weeks that would be over a hundred billion new compliments and kinder words in the digital world…
