PROCLAMATION NO. 2020-06
A PROCLAMATION OF THE TROPHY CLUB TOWN COUNCIL SUPPORTING
AUGUST 16—23, 2020 AS: BE KIND WEEK IN TROPHY CLUB, TEXAS.
WHEREAS, Kindness is defined as the quality of being friendly, generous, and
considerate as well as selfless, compassionate, and merciful. It has been studied that being kind
can strengthen relationships and serves a sense of satisfaction in life as it requires courage and
strength to be active when you see people in need; and
WHEREAS,All across the globe, we are living in unprecedented times unlike any that our
world has seen as we deal with challenges coming from all directions; and right now, our world
needs more kindness and less judgement; and
WHEREAS, We have been given so much more time at home to get to know ourselves,
our spouses, children, grandchildren, and neighbors a little bit better while dealing with Covid19.
We have had time to reflect, think, watch, learn, write, and just talk to one another about how to
deal with working from home, going back to work, being extra cautious, scheduling a surgery,
preparing for an interview; dealing with a loss of a loved one, the loss of a job, the loss of a
business, or talking about the day to day events that we have taken for granted; and
WHEREAS,the Town of Trophy Club recognizes the value of simple acts of kindness and
would ask everyone to participate in making our community stand out from all others by changing
the future, the past and the present by practicing kindness and recognizing that everyone has a
journey, things always work out best with kindness, and knowing that kind thoughts and actions
create a better environment; Happiness is found by practicing kindness; and
WHEREAS, Now is the right time to practice kindness and be kind even when it is not
convenient, popular, or in your favor; and so, "Try a Little Kindness"as Glen Campbell once wrote
and sang; and
WHEREAS, as Kindness brings peace for today and tomorrow, it also turns what we have
into enough, and more, as it is rewarding;
WHEREAS, Say a kind word, open a door for someone, help someone carry a load, give
honest compliments, send thank-you cards, tell someone how special they are to you, help our
elderly neighbors with yard work, grocery shopping, and above all, be kind to yourself; there are
many opportunities to practice kindness;
