Today my goal is to choose someone that looks like they need a pick-me-up, and do something nice for them. I have done goals like this before, but I really just want to make a dent today in someones life.

Being able to help someone in a time of need is really gratifying some times. Whether the person is just down on their luck, or is really having a personal crisis, a simple act of kindness towards them may be all they need.

If you have not checked out the movie “Pay it Forward” then I would suggest watching that right away as it is a great flick. It shows how the power of doing just very small random acts of kindness can really have a huge impact in the whole scope of things.

Check back this evening for an update and to see how my goal went. Please comment on any random acts of kindness that you saw or did throughout the day as well.

UPDATE: Was able to watch a friends kid while they took a much needed trip out to the club together. Just a small favor, but they seemed pretty happy. Anyone else help someone out today?
