Pay It Forward Day 2016 April 28th

To pay it forward. What does that mean. In a simple phrase, it means to do something for someone without any expectation of reward. It stems from being the on the other end of an act of kindness. I have been both the receiver and the person paying it forward. It is one of the greatest gifts to get and to give.

The smallest act, like buying a stranger coffee, giving flowers to a woman on a bus, or giving a blanket to a person on the street are acts of kindness.  Have you had a complete stranger be kind to you.  I have, simple things like an offer to buy me food, I actually had that happen one night recently. 

On April 28th it is Pay it Forward Day.  A day set aside to perform random acts of kindness.  To learn more about it visit http://payitforwardday.com.  I hope you will take t he opportunity to be kind everyday, but on this day it would be even more special to hear and see acts of kindness.

My challenge is for you to visit this page think of ideas and post them to facebook, lets see if we can really boost the level of kindness shown to our fellow human kind.  Then on April 28th go and do it PAY IT FORWARD.
