Ideas for an Act of Kindness might include making a donation, helping someone, volunteering your time, taking a homecooked meal to an elderly neighbor, offering to babysit for a friend so she can do holiday shopping or have a dinner out with her husband, giving something you dont really need to someone who would really enjoy it…
Be creative and look for ways that you can tie your act of kindness into the theme of your blog
Best,



















Do something nice today and don’t feel shy about posting about it.
But more importantly, try to do something nice every day afterwards!
Yea Gabriel, you hit the nail on the head. I often wonder why people do preach about doing kindness and love as certain occasions or times of the year?
I earnestly believe no time is too ripe to show kindness than other.
Thanks Lynn for sharing again
Agreed… but a little nudge now and then as a reminder doesnt hurt
I do love it when groups – like bloggers, for example – pull together to “make a difference”. I’ve seen groups online use various platforms to raise large sums of money for specific charities over the years, which is a wonderful thing.
If it takes “an event” to get more people involved than normally would on their own… then so be it

I haven’t got an act of kindness on my mind other than maybe donating to Wikipedia one of these days.
Why not a year? Maybe actually live by the Ten Commandents, wouldn’t that be novel?
