Left side reads, "you are worthy. I love you. We've got this. Keep going." Right side reads, "Hi friend! Your value isn't measured in productivity, social media likes or the approval of people who can't see you clearly."

Left side reads, "You matter. I love you. We've got this. Keep going." Right side reads, "Hi friend! Feelings are like farts... Sometimes you gotta let them out to feel better."

Card reads, "Hi friend! You are not behind. You are not late. You are right on time. You've survived every hard day that's tried to break you. That's not weakness, that's strength. Don't be afraid to rest, to start over, or try something new. You are allowed to take up space. I'm so proud of you!"

Top of card reads, "Be kind to all kinds. This random act of kindness is brought to you by the letters P, T, S, D and Taylor Swift's "The Prophecy." Bottom of card reads, "Hi friend! You are doing better than you think. Even if today feels heavy, messy, or imperfect, you still showed up. You are still here and that matters. You matter. Your existence in this world is a gift. We need your laugh, your weird, your quirks, your favorite meal, your dreams, your stubborn hope. I'm so proud of you!"

Pic of Kindness Quests - top asks the recipient to draw a picture for someone who needs a smile, the second is to write a positive message in sidewalk chalk (and the chalk is included!)

Pic of Kindness Quests - top is "next time someone is rude, respond with softness and don't take it personally." And bottom is to look in the mirror and something kind OUT LOUD to yourself."

More Kindness Quests - top is "leave a sticky note on a public bathroom mirror that says something positive" and bottom is "compliment a stranger's vibe, outfit, or laugh."

Kindness Quest: retail workers edition! Learn and use their name!

Now recruiting kind Kansas Citians with Kindness Quests (aka kindness homework 😅)... About to bust out SEVERAL retail/service industry Kindness Quests because people are largely awful and a kind word can really make the difference if you're working a double. #KindnessCity #NotesFromKindnessCity

"I cry a lot, but I am so productive - it's an art! You know you're good when you can even do it with a broken heart." 🫶🏼💖

So, while I wait for my sleepy-go-night-night meds to kick in, I will sit down and write the next batch of #NotesFromKindnessCity because I feel like an empty shell, a hollow husk of a human.

The grief, the weight of it all, it's crushing. Still reverberating from the fireworks booms in my chest.

So many dandelion wishes made to help me get it out of my broken brain into the physical.

I have no idea what I'm doing, but I invite you to follow along.

All I know is all cops are bastards, love always wins, and kindness is the currency that will save us.
