we decided to reach out via social media (Twitter and Facebook) to see what
other people are saying about kindness. Last Friday, WYCD held a twitter
chat to connect with people regarding their feelings about kindness. We got
some great answers to our questions and wanted to share a few of them on our
blog. We also would love to hear from any of you out there.
