It\u2019s harder to define than you might think, right?<\/p>\n<p>After breaking my back while playing cricket for Australia in 2012 and then losing my partner to suicide, I had no idea what my life could look like. But, upon reflection, I realized that the thing that stood out most while facing those adversities was human kindness \u2013 people who noticed my struggle and simply offered me a hand.<\/p>\n<p>So I started Kindness Factory three years ago on November 13, 2015, with a simple mission to achieve 1 million acts of kindness by the year 2020. We have over 160,000 acts now, with people logging from all around the world.<\/p>\n<p>So what have I learned so far? I would say that kindness is a feeling rather than something that can be defined. The energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued, and when they can give and receive without judgment.<\/p>\n<p>We would absolutely love for you to help us on our mission by logging your act of kindness today at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kindnessfactory.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">kindnessfactory.com<\/a> or sharing your story on social media with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/explore\/tags\/onesmallact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">#OneSmallAct<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"textbox\" dir=\"ltr\">Kath Koschel<br \/>\nFounder of Kindness Factory<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":"WINTER 2018 BOX PARTNER If I were to ask you to define kindness, what would ...","author":4493208,"featured_media":128645,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[201],"tags":[437],"thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/11140604\/kindness.png","thumbnail_url_middle_card":"https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/11140604\/kindness-386x200.png","formated_date":"November 13, 2018","category_name":"Members Only","category_icon":"https:\/\/static.fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/11113301\/iSiu0EDM.png","author_name":"","trending":false,"sponsored":false,"random_color":"#0c8c10","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/128644"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4493208"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=128644"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/128644\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/128645"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=128644"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=128644"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabfitfun.com\/magazine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=128644"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
