How Do You Teach Random Acts Of Kindness?
“Random acts of kindness” are the good deeds one does because their heart moves them, not because society or Miss Manners expects them. These are acts based purely on giving and sharing. When someone practices “random acts of kindness,” they are doing so with a clean heart, a skip in their step, a “warm fuzzy,” if you will, and they have no thoughts of retribution, recognition or duty. Here are some examples you can use to teach random acts of kindness: Your elderly neighbor has a bad back. He’s also got a yard full of trees from which the wind has stripped of nearly all the leaves. Your family goes over on a Saturday afternoon and rakes and bags his lawn. There may not even be an exchange of words between you and the neighbor. He may never know who did that chore for him, yet he’d be thanking them in his heart for days to come. A woman in your office has just had surgery. You bring her dinner and arrange for others to follow suit for a week or so, just to help her get back on her feet
