About a month ago, I posted about a "Pay-It-Forward" game for bloggers; the first 3 bloggers who commented on the post would get a gift from me, if they put the same post on their blog and agreed to send gifts to 3 people. I felt bad that it was only for bloggers, so today I'm going to give EVERYONE the chance to get a little hand-made gift from me (except Susan, Kat and Helen--whom I love and encourage to do a random act of kindness!--you three are my Pay-It-Forward recipients, so feel free to comment on this post, but your comment won't count toward gift).
This time we're doing "Random Acts of Kindness". I will send a random gift to anyone who does a kindness for someone and leaves a comment on this post. Maybe it will be one of these zippered pouches:
Simply do something unexpected for someone, any time, anywhere, and then come back here and tell what you did in the comment section. If it's next week, next month, or next year, fine! Maybe you will volunteer at school; help an older person in the grocery store; give a gift to your favorite bank teller--I'm sure you will think of something. It can be big or small, it just has to be something that makes someone else know they've been noticed. The world can seem cold and impersonal at times, and random acts of kindness are meant to counteract that.
I hope I have to send a ton of gifts, and that we all will make random acts of kindness a habit in our lives.
