Instead of the old tired news year resolution, I have decided to act in the now by committing to at least one act of kindness a day.
Hopefully this is a practice that I will continue at the start of the new year as well but for now my objective is near term hence the once a day until the end of this year.
I would be thrilled if I can have others join me in this and update us on this thread of the daily random acts.
I started this when I filled all the empty parking meters on my way into the county treasury office on Friday. It's a simple gesture and I wasn't actually even thinking of random acts of kindness when I did it. I just hate parking tickets and I had plenty of change. This is something I have done many times and isn't out of character for me but I've never gone out of my way to really ensure that I do at least one thing everyday that is completely altruistic and without want or need for anything in return, including recognition.
I truly believe that if more people made an effort to do something for their fellow human beings, no matter how small in scale, on a daily basis.....the world would begin to shift in a more positive direction. I believe kindness is contagious .
I encourage anyone who is inclined to join me and share their random acts until the end of the year.
Be the change :)
