Theme Reveal for #BlogchatterA2Z - 2021 Edition

For those who need a quick refresher course, the #BlogchatterA2ZChallenge brings together bloggers from across the world for the month of April, each blogger writing 26 posts that month corresponding to the 26 alphabets of the English language. 

Having successfully completed my first A2Z blogging challenge in 2016 around the theme of TV sitcoms, something that I love talking about (I ended up writing over 20,000 words about English TV shows and showcased over 75 sitcoms!), I went in a different direction the next year. 

The trigger was to go against the grain, trying to offer positivity in a social media that was becoming increasingly comfortable with demoralizing negativity. I searched across the globe, saving every story of kindness by an ordinary human being I could find and then showcasing them here under my theme - Heroes of Kindness - for that was what they truly were. From young six year olds to aging 90 year olds, I had them all in my list. 

I actually even began seeking them out and interviewing those I could find! I myself find that last bit ridiculous, at times. But it mattered to me. I wanted them to know too that their moment of kindness was not just a '15 minutes of fame' thing. That they were remembered fondly... that they were celebrated across the world even years later. That their simple acts of kindness are candles in the darkness for so many they do not even know.
 
It is 2021 now. And even though the world just seems to keep getting darker, I want to keep finding these candles and just placing them here for people to find and have a little more brightness in their lives.

Yes, as it has been for the last 4 years...

...my theme for the 2021 edition of the Blogchatter A2Z Challenge is indeed 'Heroes of Kindness' once more.
