Day 11 - Time for a random act of kindness

"If you find it in your heart to care for somebody else, you will have succeeded." - Maya Angelou
Today I am directing you to The Random Act of Kindness Foundation. In their own words; The Random Acts of Kindness Foundation is the heart of the kindness movement whose aim is to help everyone create a better world by spreading awareness and increasing engagement in kind actions. Today your challenge is to complete a random act of kindness. Their website is full of great ideas. Here is a few to get you going:

- Send a thank-you to your local police or fire rescue services;
- Pick up trash on the street and put it in the garbage/recycling;
- Pay for the coffee of the person behind you in line;
- Donate something good to the food bank (not just the food you don't want);
- Give blood; or,
- Share an inspirational quote.

This list goes on and on. Click on the picture and take a look at their list of kindness ideas.
"No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted." - Aesop
