About Us

"may i be kind" is a movement where humans remember that kindness begins from within.

Our message is simple practice kindness towards yourself and everything else will follow. After all, we cannot share what we do not have. Our concept to do this is through basic apparel (t-shirts and hoodies) uplifted by the magically powerful first phrase of Loving Kindness: "may i be kind." In a world where social media rules, not only do the words we see have a great impact, but so do the words we wear. When someone wears our apparel, they are reminded of the kindness within. When someone reads "may I be kind" on our apparel, without knowing, they are practicing Loving Kindness and receiving kindness from the person wearing the apparel. It is a simple way we can move the energy and guide the spirit of humanity towards kindness. The kindness that exists within us all.

may i be kind. may you be kind. may we be kind. together.

Our Story

Hi! I am, Justin Senense and I am Anu Gupta, and we are the Co-Founders of "may i be kind." We are two gay brown boys, one Filipino and one Indian. We grew up in families that did not immediately accept us. We grew up being bullied. We have struggled with personal acceptance, and we have fought the mental battles that come from bullying ourselves. Over the years, we have learned that kindness towards ourself is the root to where acceptance, compassion, respect and love for self can grow. The more we water our roots of kindness within, the more our relationship with ourselves can blossom and the more our relationships with others begins to flourish. We are on a mission, not only to spread kindness to others, but to remember that kindness begins within, before we can share it. We hope you join us on this journey to remembering the kindness we all have within.
