Envisioning a Random World
Whether it’s the day (Feb. 17) or the entire week (this week), observing National Random Acts of Kindness Week/Day is a pretty good idea. (In case you’re interested the Day was founded by Josh de Jong of New Zealand.)
Use your imagination. Watch for opportunities. You can pay for the coffee of the person in line behind you, give an unexpected compliment, or take a friend’s car (with permission, of course) and get it washed–especially if that friend has difficulty doing it him/herself. Give a warm smile to someone who seems lonely or down-in-the-dumps. You can mow your neighbor’s lawn when you mow yours, take in a neighbor’s trash cans with yours after collections, drop off a batch of cookies to a nursing home, thank the crossing guard for keeping your kids safe…all sorts of things. The act doesn’t have to be big or cost anything; it just needs to be sincere and random.
Gee. Maybe this could catch on and we’d all continue such acts each day of our lives. Imagine what the world would be like.
