 Cohesive Device Hunt:
The Power of Kindness

Good morning everyone. Today, I want to talk about something simple, yet
incredibly powerful: kindness. Firstly, kindness doesn’t require grand gestures.
Instead, it can be as small as a smile, a helping hand, or a listening ear.
Secondly, these small acts can have a ripple effect. For example, a kind word
to a stranger can brighten their day, which might inspire them to do something
kind for someone else. In conclusion, let’s all strive to be a little kinder every
day. Remember, a small act of kindness can make a big difference in the world.
