There are so many small and valuable things we can do to impact the life of another. While some of them are financially bound, others can be simple tasks, such as opening the door for someone. This year challenge yourself to more acts of kindness, random or not.
- Pay for the person’s food or beverage behind you in line.
- Write a letter to a soldier.
- Donate new and used toys to daycares or children’s hospitals.
- Cook a meal for a family who may be without.
- Give a good server the largest tip you can afford.
- Scoop snow or do other yard work for your neighbor.
- Pick up trash at an area park.
- Offer assistance to a charitable organization with your time and skills.
- Bake treats for your area school’s teachers.
- Visit a nursing home and spend time with the residents.
In addition to being kinder in 2016 you may find yourself becoming happier as well! With so many opportunities to make a difference, this list will help you get started! Add your own acts of kindness and see what you can do to better the lives of others this year.
