Kindness Concert & Kindness Flag Project

My little girl, she's such a loving sensitive child, she loves to talk to people and she smiles and compliments everyone she can. Sometimes when people meet her, at first they think that she expects to be complimented back but after you know her, you know she does it purely to brighten that person's day. I told her when she was little to smile at people and it will work magic. 

Sometimes she gets sad when someone doesn't smile back and I feel sad for her too but something I read a while ago helped, it said it doesn't matter if the person didn't appreciate it, God saw and he smiled. So that helps a bit. If we all would just make that little extra effort to be kind, miracles would abound. Like the law of attraction, it would attract tons more positive energy. 


So have you heard about the Kindness Concert and Kindness Flag Project. My friend Ingrid Tamboline was the brilliant lady who started the Kindness Flag Project during Vancouver Riots. Isn't appropriate that they should get together with the Kindness Concert.

Special Note: Ingrid is trying to get some permanent markers so that people can make Kindness flags to put up in the lobby for the concert. If you could be so kind to help her, that would be fabulous. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Kindness-Flag-Project/200759549970039?ref=ts&sk=wall 


 Please contact her for more info. She is also hoping for people to come down and make the flags so be sure and contact her :)

11th Annual Kindness Concert

World Kindness Concert

WorldKindnessConcert- On Twitter

@kindnessconcert Vancouver, British Columbia
Global movement 2 Eliminate Bullying, Domestic Violence, Cruelty 2 Animals, Abuse 2 our Environment Kindness is the solution... 11th year join us on FB


Quoted from Website:

Mission :
The World Kindness Concert celebrates its 11th year by gathering world class performers to celebrate and promote the messages of kindness, compassion, love and peace, and to touch the hearts of people around the world. This is more than just a Concert. 

This is a Global Movement to eliminate violence, bullying, suicide, cruelty and abuse to our environment. Some of the most inspiring and powerful performing artists will gather at The Centre For Performing Arts in Vancouver, Canada for a one of a kind concert that focuses on  the solution to these global issues. 

It promises to be a most memorable evening where everyone will be touched by a simple and yet most powerful message… Kindness…. Why kindness? 

In a world where bullying, depression, suicide and violence has reached epidemic proportions, ‘Kindness’ is not just a nice idea or notion….it is critical to the well-being of our world.  

Too often we under estimate the power of a smile, a touch,  a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. No kind action ever stops with itself. One kind action leads to another. A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions and the roots spring up and make trees. Let kindness begin today and be contagious to touch each of us in the most meaningful way.

 Kindness Flag Project Inspired by Ingrid

From Ingrid Tamboline
 From Ingrid Tamboline,
To the amazing people who helped in more ways than I could possibly describe, THANK YOU! To Guy, Janice, Marie, Iman, Neil and the many others whose names I sadly cannot remember, thank you! Today I had a little idea and took a chance to see if anyone wanted to participate, and within minutes it exploded into a creative force. People WANTED to make something and and set in motion acts of creation to offset the senseless acts of destruction we experienced the other night. People shared the few paints, brushes and pens I had. They helped each other out, they collectively made flags with words and images of loving kindness. They were incredibly kind and generous to me. THIS is Vancouver! THIS is our city! Thank you, hooligans! Because of you, Vancouverites and visitors to our beautiful city have a common goal, and that is to transform anger, hostility and destruction into happiness, kindness and creation. You've reminded us of the importance to be kind. Thank you!

And once again, a million thank yous to everyone who participated and has helped or offered to help. This is your project, and it's wonderful!

Ingrid

So glad we made the effort and walked downtown yesterday. (Something was telling me we had to go)  We were just going to look at the wall and add some little gold hearts with a heart shaped sponge and some gold paint.

 Angel saw them making Kindness Flags and we made one too! It was really nice. It was a wonderful healing artistic expression of love for ourselves and the city.

Art Therapy- an awesome tool for when your grieving, and seriously we are going thru a type of grief. Shock, dismay, post traumatic stress, all these things we carry around as we watched that night, and as we still are seeing shocking video at the insane behavior by many people, our youth!

But it doesn't represent all youth or the people of Vancouver. 

There are many fabulous kind people in this world and we have a choice, to chose to live in Love or Fear. Which do you chose?

By choosing love and participating yesterday we began our healing process. I created a little film from the photos I took of the wall and all the flags, and it really is a Beautiful Celebration of Kindness and Love and Peace

The Kindness Flag Project


The Kindness Flag Project
Let's Create love and peace and help the healing of our grand city.

Today Ingrid Tamboline decided she needed to do something, so she took a table and art supplies and sat outside of the Bay and gave people the chance to voice their love and support for the people of Vancouver.

Lets help her make it an even bigger show of kindness!

Come down and make a flag.
Make one at home and bring it down
If you want to bring supplies, Great!
Teachers - have your students make flags and put them up!

Post pictures of the beauty of love and your flags!

It is quite amazing to be standing among like minded people who just want love, peace and acceptance.

Lets show the world who we truly are!!!
