Make Someone's Day!!

One small, thoughtful gesture can make someone else's day...


1. Say "Good morning" to a person standing next to you in the elevator

2. Pay the toll for the driver behind you.


3. Take a minute to direct someone who is lost, even though you're rushing.

4. Write a letter to a child who could use some extra attention. Kids love getting mai

5. Offer to pick up groceries for an elderly neighbor, especially in extreme weather.

6. Give a homeless person your doggie bag.

7. Say "I love you" to someone you love.                                     


8. Put a coin in an expired meter.

9. Help a mother carry her baby stroller up the subway stairs, or hold a door open for her.

10. Each time you get a new item of clothing, give away something old.


11. Take someone's shift as the car-pool parent.


12. Bring your assistant coffee.


13. Out of the blue, send flowers to a friend.


14. Say "please" and "thank you"—and really mean it.


15. When you're on a crowded train or bus, offer your seat to an elderly, disabled or pregnant person.

Enjoy!!

  1. I really like this post. Quite often, I'm sure, I'm so busy with my own world to think about "paying it forward". A little reminder from time to time is much appreciated. :)

  2. I wish people would do nice things more often like those.

    Here is an email that I got that really touched my heart if its true or not we still need to think about what we are doing and slow down to see the scenery.
