"I am not lost! If you are stuck out in the cold, please take this to keep warm!" Hats and scarves tied to trees for those who are less fortunate. I love seeing things like this. This little act of kindness could really make someones day. When I see things like this, it truly gives me hope for humanity. With all of the cruel things going on in the world today, this miniscule act of kindness is truly amazing. This picture had reminded me of how fortunate I am and how I tend to take things as small and insignifant as hats and scarves for granted. That being said, I had decided to come up with a list of things I can do that are considered small acts of kindness. I will strive to do at least one of these acts on a daily basis.
~ Hold the door for a group of people
~ Smile at a stranger
~ Send an unexpected I love you text to someone I love
~ Pick up trash in the dining hall
~ Reach out to someone that I haven't talked to in a while
~ Compliment a stranger
~ Tell my parents how much I love them
~ Be a good listener
~ Hug my friends
~ Recycle
~ Turn off a running faucet in a public restroom
~ Send a friend an old photo and recall that time
~ Let someone get a head of me inline
~ Say thank you to a janitor
~ Show enthusiasm in class
~ Be encouraging
~ Do the task that no one else wants to do
~ Introduce myself
~ Be kind to all :)
