Random Acts of Kindness

Join me in February and into March for Pay It Forward Challenge with Random Acts of Kindness for 30 days

Here's how it works...
Each day during the month of February and into March I will post an idea on my blog for a random act of kindness (of course you may have your own ideas) starting February 17th, today to March 17th.
At the bottom of Ever Ready blog is a comment box. Click it on and post your idea or perhaps some unexpected thing that happened along the way to you. I look forward to reading your comments. I will also be commenting on my own random act of kindness journey. Look for this icon each day on my blog.

Perhaps these random acts of kindness may even become some kind of life long habit. Here are some ideas to get you started.
This site Random Acts of Kindness was quite helpful for ideas divided into the following categories:
school, family, cooking, baking, family, environment, sports, crafts, senior citizens, parking, strangers, community, holiday, literacy and many others. Check it out.
