I read a few entries and when I read this one and ended up getting choked up with Stephanie donating her tickets, I knew it was right to get involved. And thank you for doing your part. It's bigger than you may ever know. And will go forward longer than you ever expected.

I myself have done the following random acts of kindness in the last year:<br />I gave a city worker (sweeping sidewalk on Main St) $10 and thanked him for his service.<br />I paid for 2 female soldiers snacks at a BP gas station and thanked them for their service and gave both hugs.<br />I gave a gift card (AMEX) that I received as a gift to a fast food worker at the drive through.<br />I paid for someone's groceries at the 10 item or less lane at the grocery store- Mom with 3 little ones.<br />Hope these ideas help!<br />LisaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582764453350490719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2211197830758041917.post-45380854290652327492012-01-18T14:10:53.751-08:002012-01-18T14:10:53.751-08:00What a great random act for today!

Was totally one of the highlights of my year. <br />If you ever want to repeat something with a sports team...find someone in the military and set them up with tickets. They totally deserve it and always are so appreciative.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16812611670182790779noreply@blogger.com
