I've been deliberating with this project of doing or saying one thing a day to make a stranger smile. One a day may be too ambitious, but I think I'm going to give it a shot from here on out!

When's the last time you did something nice for someone else without expecting anything in return?
Aww that's very sweet of you Shorty! But what are Postal service tickets? Are they like stamps then or? Well, I did give blood earlier in April, and I obviously didn't expect anything in return (unless nearly passing out from climbing stairs afterward was any 'reward') but I really liked doing that. I've got another appointment in August I believe.

I guess for me general acts of kindness involve just being a friendly ear. Hell, even saying a simple hello can make someone feel welcome and included and feeling better.

It's the small things you know?
