Everyone deserves a Valentine, don’t you think? On Valentine’s Day, hand out roses to strangers to show them some love. I like to stop by hospitals and give them to the patients and nurses. For an unexpected surprise, give them to your tollbooth attendant.
Help the good people out at the animal shelter and offer to walk one of their dogs. This is also a great activity to do on a date, with your special someone, or the family. You’ll show kindness to an animal, help a deserving organization, spend time with loved ones, and get some good exercise. How can you beat that? Oh, and don’t forget bags to pick up after your furry friend.
You’ve seen them do it in the movies. Someone sends over a bottle of wine to show off or impress a potential client. Add a twist of kindness by sending over a bottle anonymously. Ask your waiter if he knows of anyone in the restaurant celebrating an anniversary or birthday. Then ask him to bring over a bottle compliments of you. Be sure to ask him to keep it anonymous unless you’re hoping to make some new friends.
If you find a penny face up it’s considered good luck. How about creating some good luck for someone else? Find a wishing fountain and leave pennies face up around the fountain for others to use to make a wish.
