I think we need some more kindness in the world today. Things are going haywire in so many ways, we need to get back to basic humanity for a while. So today’s TT is about kindness.
Thirteen Random Acts of Kindness
1. Hold the door for someone you don’t know.
2. Let a car in front of you in traffic.
3. Pay for the person’s meal behind you on the drive-thru line.
4. Donate what you can to your favorite charity.
5. Read a book with a child.
6. Clean up the mess left by someone else in the kitchen, without complaining.
7. Buy someone a gift, just because.
8. Buy yourself a gift, just because.
9. Clean out your closet and bring everything down to the Goodwill store or Salvation Army.
10. Send a handwritten note to someone.
11. Donate a book (or two) to your local library.
12. Give somebody a big, squeezy hug.
13. Tell someone you love them.
Do one, two or three of these. I guarantee you’ll feel good. :)
Yep, I agree. And here’s one that makes me feel very good: pimp your friends’ books at your own blog. I love spreading the word!
