Pay it Forward
>> 19.11.09
The world can seem like an unfriendly, threatening place, yet we all want safety, health, and happiness for ourselves and our loved ones.
How can one ordinary person -- you or me -- make a positive difference in this world?
One way is the practice "paying it forward."
While the steps might be simple, the outcome could change the world.
- Be attentive wherever you are for opportunities to help someone.
- Perhaps you have an elderly or disabled neighbor who is too proud to ask for help with their hardwork.
- A all alone neighbor who is sick and you offer to shop for them, or bring them chicken soup.
- You can change people's attitudes about the world through your unobtrusive acts of kindness
Do something nice for someone you don't know.
Spread the word.
Pay it forward.
Write a letter to a stranger.
Say thank you.
Compliment someone.
Clean up.
Cheer someone up.
Send flowers or offer a warm hug.
Send a message.
Forgive somebody.
Share a smile.
It is as simple as that...
