A fun way to give back is through small, random acts of kindness.
Each day, try to do something kind. Small things are fine. In fact, small acts of kindness are easier to do and because they’re easier to do you’ll do these acts more often.
- Drop some change into the guitar case of the street musician.
- Buy an extra donut and give one to a homeless person on the street.
- Write poems or draw a picture and leave these on park benches.
- Smile and say hello to people you pass on the sidewalk.
- Sit down on the bus bench and chat to an older person until the bus arrives.
- Pick flowers from your garden and place them on the tables in cafes you visit.
- Put out bird seed to attract birds to your neighbor’s garden.
These small acts of random kindness benefit others, but they’re really for you.
