Practice random acts of kindness

i recently recceived a payback from a homeless man i gave $16 to over 3 years ago. it was no biggie to me but he insisted i give him my name and address so he could send the money back. i did. he lost the address but not my name. he looked me up on myspace, contacted me, got my new address and sent me a thank you card with $20! karma always comes back!

give your leftovers to a homeless man, give them some money (dont try to rationalize that theyre going to waste the money – its not your place to judge where it goes, but your responsibility to help others if you can afford it), give a hitchhiker a ride even if its just a couple exits! sometimes thats all they want and a little bit of the way is better than sitting all day (its safer when you have one other person with you… OH and remember that if you get a bad vibe, appologize but tell them you dont feel comfortable), pick up a shift for a coworker, donate money to charity, VOLUNTEER, start working with food not bombs… there is so much you can do, big and little! but remember its every little bit that counts!

when i hitchhiked across the country, i looked to random acts of kindness to survive. outside of receiving rides, meals (from kind folks or dumpsters and trash cans) and places to crash on floors i found out that there is more kindness out there in people than i previously gave them credit for! now that im working and back in society, its now my responsibility to repay the kindness i receieved to anyone i feel needs help/support and reassurance that there still is good in the population!
