12 wonderful photographs which prove that kindness is all around us

Kindness is one of the great forces in this world. The more good deeds we do, the more the world will be filled with tiny little wonders going on all around you, and the chances of the dreams of each and every one of us coming true will grow. No one’s perfect, but so long as there are still people out there who are still capable of kindness, then not everything is lost.

Here are just a few of those people. Each one of these pictures is filled with so much humanity we just can’t describe it. See for yourselves.
