This is a delayed response, but it’s been on my mind. I invited a friend away from her family to our home for Christmas Eve. She later came back to me and said that she was in a pretty big funk, and being at our home made all the difference. Thanks for the reminder to be nice… not sure I would’ve thought to do this had you not issued this challenge.

I hosted a friend and her family at the last minute last night as they were driving through town and needed somewhere to stay.

I love this. All the comments have been so inspiring. I’m still working on my acts of kindness each day! Thanks for the inspiration.

Mine have fallen somewhat into the financial category–paid off layoff for someone at a Wal-Mart and paid for the next several cars behind me in line at Starbucks. I love some of the amazing ideas here!

Today I made lunch for a group of my fellow teachers. They work super hard every day, and it was important to me that they know how much I value them and their friendships.

I am in on this action! I sent thank you cards to my daughters teachers for all they do each day and I also helped a young college girl jump her car. I am keeping it up- taking the time to do 26 acts of kindness to spread the joy and gentleness of the holiday season and of the hearts lost on 12-14.

I’ve been leaving surprise chocolates at work for people, I parked in the faaaar parking lot today so someone else who was running late could park close, I stuck a dollar in the vending machine so someone could get a drink on me, and I’ve got a bunch more up my sleeve. This has been instrumental in turning my depression around this week. Truly gifts to someone else are gifts to myself.

I was in the Chick-fil-a drive thru and paid for the car behind me.

Tomorrow will be my annual opportunity to treat whoever is in the office to Starbucks on the last day before winter break (we work at a university).
