Show Us Your Life- Random Acts of Kindness

One of the best things in the world that you can do is treat others with kindness and respect. You never know what is going on in someone else's life, and sometimes a smile can make someone's day! :)

A few ideas of Random Acts of Kindness....

1.) Surprising someone with their favorite drink....

2.) Offering to watch a child for someone so that they can have a break.

3.) Smile at someone...

4.) Pay the toll for someone in the car behind you.

5.) Pass a coupon you have to the next customer....

6.) Lend a hand to a mom with kids in the grocery store parking lot...

Random Acts of Kindness shown to me....

1.) Guys I work with cleaning the snow off my car before I get a chance

2.) Someone buying me a diet coke...

3.) I've had lunch bought for me...

4.) When money got tight for me, I got a surprise in my checking account from family

5.) The wife of one of the guys I used to work with was in Notre Dame, Indiana on business. She stopped by the University of Notre Dame bookstore and brought me back a souvenir! :)

6.) Another guy I work with gave me his ESPN magazine with Jimmy Clausen on the cover...(I walked into work and it was on my desk! :)

I think there are so many different things that you can do for other people. It doesn't have to be big, sometimes all it takes is a smile!

God Bless and Have a Great weekend!!!!
