Furthermore, public figures are also hailing World Kindness Day, some even without knowing it.
For example, Jennifer Lawrence walked the red carpet at the world premiere of "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" this week when she displayed a shining act of kindness.
The 23-year-old actress noticed a crying female fan in a wheel chair, clearly upset during the event. Instead of moving along the red carpet before dozens of photographers, Lawrence stepped through the security barricade to comfort the young girl.
This year, The Christian Post has compiled five fun ways to participate in World Kindness Day today, and possibly every day.
1. Say a morning, afternoon, or evening greeting to three people you pass today.
2. Pick up and throw away a piece of litter found outside.
3. Send a card or a handwritten note to someone you care about today.
4. Compliment the next three people you see.
5. Find an uplifting quote and post it to Facebook or Twitter on World Kindness Day.
On Twitter, users are already consciously trying to spread light and love, including one post that read, "When you are kind to others, it not only changes you, it changes the world. –Harold Kushner #quote #WorldKindnessDay"
