Hey, you and I should start the ball rolling. If you haven't noticed, a lot of people just jump on the bandwagon. How about we just do acts of kindness to random people and our friends will start being nice and our friend's friends will be nice also and our friend's friend's friends will be nice and before we know it, the world would be happy again!!!!!!!!

It would be in July - any day that is warm and sunny.  It would be called Random acts of Kindness  Day and the holiday would be to go out and do things that you normally wouldn't do solely for the benefit of making the world a better place or specifically to make someones day.  You would not get anything for performing this service other than a pat on the back.

The human nature tends to do bad things, you just accept people as they are and you give advice whenever possible, but don't try to change the world because it is not possible, take it easy and you will relax, enjoy your life

I don't understand why you are so down on others??? I can give you a long list of people and organizations that do great things for people in need. I know of many churches that are great about reaching out to those in need. And just think about it for a while, where can you find more generous and giving people? The church is is the most caring place on earth. The most generous people I know are Christians!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\n\nSo stop complaining and start bragging about all the wonderful acts of kindness that are in this world we live in.\n\nAnd don't judge me, you have no idea what I do to help those in need. Likewise, you have no idea what others are doing behind the seens to give a hand up to those in need.

Child of God, yes -- if we could all learn to think of each other with hearts filled with kindness, compassion, and understanding -- this world would be a much better place.\n\nDo I believe that WE can make that happen?  No.  Because evil and hatred are very real, and we can't defeat them by ourselves.\n\nIt doesn't mean, though, that we should give up trying.  Perhaps each of us can make "our little corner of the world" a little better by treating each other with courtesy and respect.  Peace !

Random acts to me consist of knowing someone's needs before they come up and ask you.  Handing out a piece of candy every once in awhile is nice.  Helping people in need of most small favor's is nice too.  Making people laugh usually is a good thing.  But, not everyday, ya got to give it a break once in awhile because you'd find that people do take advantage of those type of situation's, if ya know what I mean...   Dr Checko...   (Nickname)

I have not been out today but I do like to spread ramdom acts of kindness throughout my day to others.  Try it...It can be fun.  Pay for the car behind you at the drive through, bring a dessert to your neighbor, let someone with less groceries cut inline in front of you at the store, Hand a toll both operator a $20 bill to pay for others tolls, compliment anyone on their outfit, hair whatever.   There are a million things you can do and doing these things makes America better.

In my experience the Best people do not think about being better than anyone else. They just do the best they can. Whilst money can help in many situations it is not a measure of the quality of a person. Many people overcome poverty to be great achievers.

I got the Sunday Paper out of the recycle bin for my neighbor, and will hold it for her until her return. Nice question.  If everyone performed one random act of kindness this world would be a lot better. Blessing to you.

We need more of your kind in the world! Stay happy and those people just aren't used to everything so sad, you really need to let them get used to having a happy life for a change!

Yes and i think everyone does this at one point or another without realizing it.  It is all the small things.  You can put a quarter in a homeless man's cup or give the right of way to another driver.  This is kindness but no one sits there and say "i paid it forward"

Actually ... yeah ... I think it could could. If everyone in the world was filled with genuine love for others, we'd be rid of war, poverty, and greed.\n\nBut that's never going to be the way things are. For some reason, there always has to balance, and we never really appreciate the good without the bad to offset it.

Be an example.  It's hard to save the world on your own.  But if you set a positive, loving example and show the world what it is like to be kind and considerate others just might catch on.  That's what I am trying to do.  We can eliminate stupidity with our example.

Religion aside, many cultures believe doing good is acting in ways that benefit others besides yourself, and treating others as you may expect to be treated, and not necessarily needing an explicit reason for kindness.  It can only feel right.

I agree with you.  The world has come to a place where selfishness and "looking out for number 1" is highly encouraged, where caring about others, or putting someone else first, is totally denounced.  I think, overall, people don't want to experience even the least bit of discomfort these days, so they are constantly trying to make themselves happy, comfortable, entertained, etc.\n\nI have never felt more fulfilled in life then when I volunteer to help others.  You could say I'm really doing it for me, to feel good, but I don't think it's selfish, even if it is for me, because there are pleanty of other things I could be doing "for me" than helping other people.  I volunteer at a counsiling center, and at a half-way house.  It's awesome!!!
