The photo shows her on the beach and was taken on the sunset, as Bündchen meditated in a brown one piece bathing suit. She captioned the post in both English and Portuguese. “Everyone we meet has faced or is facing challenges in life that we know nothing about,” she wrote. “We don’t see the silent struggles, the fear, the obstacles, the heartbreaks, or their daily ups and downs… As we go about our daily routine, we may miss seeing someone needing a simple, kind word or gesture.” Near the end of her post, Bündchen advocated for kindness, which is more necessary now than ever according to her estimations. “I believe an act of kindness sparks more kindness, and this is what we most need in the world today,” she concluded the post.

Bündchen recently shared a post where she celebrated the small things in life, packed with moments shared alongside her family members in Brazil.
