- THE RIPPLE EFFECT OF KINDNESSKindness often starts with something small: A smile, a compliment, or a simple act of help. Yet these small actions can evoke a ripple effect that extends far beyond the original moment. When someone experiences kindness, they are often inspired to pay it forward. A person who feels appreciated may offer en- couragement to someone else. A thoughtful gesture can bright- en someone's day and influence how they treat others.

- THE IMPORTANCE OF HKL IN OUR LIFEWith SO much happening around the world, the future can feel uncertain, even bleak at times. It's hard to know what to hope for the next generation when we ourselves feel unsure about the present. In many ways, the way we think shapes the way we live. Our mindset doesn't just affect us internally; it influences our motions without realizing that feel this way? What can I do we're not truly happy.

A genuine conversation has the power to ignite the heart, inspir- ing us to look deeper at what a peaceful life actually requires. This is exactly what happened during a recent Uber ride from the San Francisco airport. When I least expected it, I received a profound gift from a man named Faizan. Our talk began with a simple question about his day. Faizan shared that he had been driving for hours, barely sleeping, often resting in his car just to keep up with the payments. He spoke of a time when life was simpler a time before he even knew that a word like "stress" existed.

HKL STUDENT-LED CLUBS SPREAD HUMILITY, KINDNESS, AND LOVE ACROSS BC CAMPUSES
Across British Columbia cam- puses, a quiet but powerful movement is growing led not by institutions, but by the students.
The HKL (Humility, Kindness, Love) student-run clubs are of- ficially growing at both Simon Fraser University (SFU) and the University of the Fraser Valley (UFV), creating spaces centered around humility, kindness, love, and gratitude.
At SFU, the HKL club has al- ready been bringing these val- ues to life in meaningful and memorable ways. They've vis- ited care homes, where students and seniors came together for board games and craft sessions that turned into real bonding experiences. There was laugh- ter, storytelling, and moments that simply felt good. It wasn't about being perfect at crafts or winning games; it was about showing care, connecting with others, and sharing simple acts of kindness.
The HKL club also visited a halfway home, continuing this approach through honest inter- action and real connection. By engaging in conversation, lis- tening with intention, and sim- ply being present, they helped create an environment that felt welcoming and inclusive, where individuals could con- nect openly and comfortably.
One of the most engaging ini- tiatives introduced by the HKL club at SFU has been their inter- active campus tables, designed to encourage reflection and open conversation among students. Anyone who would be pass- ing by were invited to respond to thoughtful prompts such as, "What does HKL mean to you?" and "What are you grateful for?" While simple in nature, these questions sparked

grow, HKL is helping strength- en a sense of community across campuses one rooted in hu- mility, kindness, and love. Its momentum shows no signs of slowing down.
Students shared a wide range of reflections, from appreciation for family and friendships to gratitude for personal growth, resilience, and even small, everyday moments. Some re- sponses were thought-provok- ing, while others were simple but heartfelt. Each one contrib- uted to a growing sense of em- pathy and connection within the student community. The initia- tive transformed ordinary cam- pus spaces into places where students could pause, reflect, and engage with what truly mat- ters to them.
As the initiative continues to WHAT ARE YOU GRATEFUL
FOR At the University of the Fraser Valley, HKL has demonstrated a similarly positive presence. During a recent visit to a care home, students and seniors con- nected through shared activities and conversation, creating a warm and comfortable environ- ment for everyone involved.
What makes HKL stand out is its ability to create impact through simple, everyday ac- tions. Rather than relying on formal structures, the club fo- cuses on genuine human con- nection and small, intentional acts of care. In a fast-paced acanexus
