Random Acts Of Kindness - Community Challenge
Doing something kind for someone increases our wellbeing – It’s a win-win situation really! I think this video says it all really
Kindness = connection
Here is your mission if you wish to accept *insert mission impossible reference here*
Try out a random act of kindness tomorrow.
I think I will try and shout a coffee for the person lining up behind me....
Come back & let us know how it went!

Re: Random Acts Of Kindness - Community Challenge
... I kinda chickened out of buying the person behind me a coffee...
So what I did instead is buy some flowers and left them on the door step of my neighbour. I left a "Kindness Card" with them. You can order 'Kindness Cards' through Wake Up project's website: http://wakeupproject.com.au/ they are free 🙂
I've had them in my purse for ages, just waiting for the right time - & today was it 🙂
I got a bit of a kick out of it too.
*TICK* mission accomplished. Did anyone else have a go?

Re: Random Acts Of Kindness - Community Challenge
I took a big bag of dry cat food and some canned fish to the abandoned cats shelter on the road going into town.
I stayed for a while and help bottle feed a litter of kittens whos mum had died. I also took a box of chocolates to give to the ladies who look after all the cats because they are so nice.

Re: Random Acts Of Kindness - Community Challenge
I know i don't always feel this good so while i do i take advantage of it and fill up on goodness. Practiceing all healthy things like meditation and gardening and wow just plain feeling ok.
Sometimes just a smile to someone is an excellent way to connect. With me being socially shy it can be hard to do the communication thing with words.

Re: Random Acts Of Kindness - Community Challenge
