Hey!
I came upon a list of 70 Random acts of kindness and as I sat there and read them all I thought "Geez, this is way too much to do and remember". So I decided to pick just 15 and make it a goal for myself and each of YOU to do at least one of them in the next 7 days until I post again and check on you...and post 15 more.
I know I'm constantly stressed and not always so cheery as you might think I am. (Sut up) I think my parents must have done something right though ~ I am always polite to people at the checkout and smile at their usually sour face (they must not of had the same parents) and I especially like to smile at old people and open the doors for them to see them smile back.
Don't get me wrong, if I smile and get nothing but a stink eye back or get shoved past without an "excuse me" I tend to mutter an obscenity under my breath and glare at the culprit. There are SO many things we can do that take so little of our effort or energy and I for one need to be reminded so here we go...
15 RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS ~ PICK ONE OR MORE TO DO IN 7 DAYS ~ STARTING NOW
1. Open the door for another person.
2. Drive safely and be courteous.
3. When visiting a hospital spend a few moments with someone who doesn’t have any visitors.
