Your wings already exist, all you've got to do is fly!
SMall acts of kindness every day. Helping a student out, letting people in to locked areas, lots of small things I can do.
I sometimes pay for the persons order behind me in the drive through - when i get coffee. I have also bought flowers and passed them out to co-workers.
@SoulfullyAButterfly while driving a car, letting someone make a left turn when you are stopped anyway rather than trying to accelerate through the intersection.

giving your neighbour a bouquet of herbs (instead of flowers) so they know you care.
giving an upset child a compliment to boost their confidence.
not chasing a street dog away but giving it a loving smile and soft talk
Reaching the top shelf for an elderly person to get something down. Walking a person where they need to go rather than just giving them directions.

love the part with walking with them, making them feel safe - great!
Love this question and reading responses. For my part, a friend of mine was actually asking me about developing a "operation uplift" or "random-acts-of-kindness" and such so that members can post 1-liners like the ones mentioned here or pics/vids of "good things" to help anyone remember that the world is not all doom-and-gloom 24x7 like most TV news and outlets portray. Yes, don't ignore the bad times and atrocities of the world, but add to helping by providing a services of do-good and feel-good about being human. We're open to ideas and suggestions. The tech work is essentially just a side project for us and we'll have to figure out some monetization in order to pay for web services and maintenance, but our overall goal is to create a platform to share and inspire kindness.
