Kindness Matters!
Welcome to Meee Moments #74 – Kindness Really Matters, and It Starts with You!
This month, we’re exploring something simple, powerful, and often overlooked: kindness.
Kindness is magic. It has the power to change someone’s day, to ease a burden, to spark connection, and it starts with how we treat ourselves.
When we show kindness inwardly, we build the strength and compassion to share it outwardly. Small gestures, gentle words, patient moments, they all add up to something extraordinary.
So this month, let’s choose kindness. For ourselves. For others. For the world around us.

When I visited the store to pick up a few things for my children, I found myself in the queue behind a mum with two young kids. She had her hands full, and instead of letting impatience creep in, I offered to help. I unloaded the items from her trolley while she retrieved her three-year-old from one of the aisles.
She turned to me and said, “Thank you so much for helping me, that was really kind.”
I’m not sharing this for praise, but to highlight how kindness lives in these tiny moments. Too often, our impatience gets in the way of our natural instinct to help. But when we pause, when we choose kindness, we make space for connection, and that’s where the magic happens.
“I looked like a new man, and Peety looked like a new dog. Better yet, I felt like a new person.”

Words Of Kindness
In our latest Just Meee podcast, Eric O’Grey shares the incredible story of how one doctor’s advice didn’t just change his life...it saved it.
"When I think of giving, I think of kindness, selfless acts done without expecting anything in return. But often, I’ve found that kindness gives back even more. I call it a “kindness investment.”
Not every act leads to something big, but many do, and often when you least expect it. I’ve had forgotten moments of kindness resurface decades later as unexpected job offers or life-changing opportunities.
In my interview with Sid, I share one powerful example: how Dr. Preeti Kulkarni of Sunnyvale, California changed my life.
After 25 years of struggling with obesity and health issues, she gave me more than just medical advice, she gave me hope, insight, and a new path. That one act led to a book, national media, and a completely transformed life, for both of us.
Kindness multiplies.
When you give to others, you often give even more to yourself.
I hope you enjoy listening."
Thank you, Eric, for sharing your wonderful story. And, thank you Dr. Preeti too! x
“Carry out a random act of kindness, with no expectation of reward... safe in the knowledge that one day, someone might do the same for you.”

The Kind Game
If Kindness Were Money, How Wealthy Would We Be?
If kindness were currency, how rich would you feel right now? How wealthy would your community, your workplace, or our world be?
In 1968, Robert F. Kennedy gave a powerful speech about GDP, reminding us that it measures everything “except that which makes life worthwhile.” It doesn’t count the generosity we show, the care we give, or the moments when we choose empathy over judgment.
Imagine if we measured our true wealth by acts of kindness, the smiles we offer, the help we give, the compassion we extend to others and to ourselves.
Take a Minute™️ today to play The Kind Game. Notice the small, generous things you do, and let them add up.
Give freely. Give kindly. You might just discover you’re already richer than you think.
We’d love to hear what kindness means to you. 💛kind@meee.global
"Kindness carries no price tag neither does it require making a purchase."

Random Acts of Kindness
Inspired by Chapter 45 of Meee In A Minute, Sid shares the story about kindness.
Kindness is powerful.
It costs nothing and yet has the potential to change everything, for others and for ourselves.
In Meee In A Minute, Chapter 45 reminds us that even the smallest, most unexpected gesture can leave a lasting impact.
One powerful story is that of Joyce Rhinehart, who took a quick photo of a family at an ice cream shop, simply because they didn’t have their phone.
Days later, she received a message: the mother had passed away, and the photo Joyce took was the last picture they had together.
One moment. One act. A lasting gift.
🟡 Take a Minute™️ today to be kind, without reason, without expectation. You never know whose heart you might touch.
“No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.”
Aesop
What if you gave yourself kindness?
What if you gave yourself the space to pause, reflect, and simply be, without judgment?
What if you offered more kindness to your thoughts, more gentleness to your journey, and more credit for how far you’ve come?
The My Meee app is designed to help you do just that.
With reflective exercises, mood tracking, and inspiring content, it’s your space to practice kindness, toward yourself.
Because kindness isn’t just something we give to others.
The most powerful kindness often begins within: in a moment of peace, a word of encouragement, or a quiet shift in perspective.
When we’re kind to ourselves, we’re better equipped to bring kindness into the world around us.
