A Week of Kindness
After 9-11, New York pedestrians started finding envelopes. They were on park benches, taped to subway windows, and suspended in trees at the parks.
The person would find a happy or uplifting note, a sweet drawing, or a couple dollars with "smile while you enjoy a coffee :)"
What started out as a few people wanting to do what they could, anything they could, to make sense of the chaos and perhaps bring a small ray of sunshine into a fellow mourners day, turned into a grassroots campaign and hundreds of these notes were found around the city as more and more people joined in.
Think of this as you go about your week. What can you do to brighten someone's day?
Even a smile is precious- and contagious 😊
Happy Monday Steemmates, and have a wonderful week!
❤
I love you guys!
I appreciate your support :)
Yeah, a simple compliment can go a long way in brightening someone's day. This is why I do not withhold compliments. I give it freely.
Nice write-up.
Yes, compliments should always be shared freely 💜
I always believe in coming out to help people in need, let your heart feel the pain and distress of others. Thats the only way we can help the community and move forward. Spread some love
Be what you wish to see 😊
Thanks for sharing , I appreciate it ❤

Motivating but people don't really know that a simple smile can do a whole lot to a person's day. Sometimes when people become so aggressive to you as you walk past or as you go to buy something. Don't react negatively as you wouldn't know what that person is actually passing through. A simple act of kindness and love could change that person's life and you would never be forgotten in a hurry.
A simple smile can make someone's entire day...
Even a glitter of hope is enough.
Quick question : i love writing and blogging but is it a real job? I mean it's fun right? Jobs a never fun. So whats was your other job before steemit lift you away for fun soil?
I'm a professional writer. I have a couple columns, I write articles for a number of platforms, and I also write fiction books.
I love it! I believe you have to love it, otherwise it shows negatively- your readers can feel what you portray, good or bad.
You can absolutely make a good logging as a writer. It is very hard work immorally- the first X amount of years are tough. But you get from it exactly what you put into it :)
seems like a long way road you ve crossed ; i m on the same path as you. it's just, a story like no other is my first work , i hope it ll be a success and i ll get wonderful feedbacks otherwise i m not quitting , not ever . i love what i do
i m happy for you glamorous successs ; keep it up :)
Never give up. If you persevere you will achieve your dreams :)
Thank you!
You re welcome😊😊
I had never heard about that. How wonderful. I wish there was a feeling of common ground today (but without s precipitating tragic event), and that people would realize we can’t stand together as a county without an understanding that everyone is important. Everyone deserves respect.
I really enjoyed reading this. Thank you! :)
