perform an anonymous favor

Today I bought enough school supplies for two kids that I am going to donate on Tuesday. The store did not have the list of supplies that the schools needed so I asked a parent that I saw with a list. When she asked if I had kids I said no I am just going to donate supplies. It was really cool. She thanked me and as she was leaving she gave me her list because she was finished shopping for her kids.

Yesterday I put a smile card on the vending machine at work with $1.00 attached. This afternoon it was gone. I have not heard anything said about it around the office but I am sure they enjoyed what ever they got with the money.

I think the issue was I was thinking too big. I found a website with all kinds of ideas for random acts of kindness. They have a small section on anonymous acts and I found some good ideas. They have “smile cards” that you can print for when you do these acts. It says
Smile you have just been tagged. Experiment in anonymous kindness is the name of the game and now you are it.

Someone reached out to you with an anonymous act of kindness. Now it is your chance to do the same. Do something nice for someone, leave this card behind and keep the spirit going.

I printed 4 cards so I am going to do 4 things.
