The Random Acts of Kindness movement is born. In 1995, a small group of people at Conari Press came together around the idea that small gestures and simple acts can make a difference in people's lives. Thus, Random Acts of Kindness was born. But they had no idea how big this little idea would become.
Make a difference in the world. This good-humored guide to being the change you want to see in the world is filled with suggestions for making a real difference, in ways both large and small. From improving someone's life with just one penny to ensuring all children are well fed, the day-by-day positive proposals of Random Acts of Kindness combine inspiration with action. Despite the hurly-burly of our busy lives, we can all make a beneficial impact on the environment, throughout out local community, and within our own hearts. This book of inspired ideas and good deeds conveys how "the power of one"--that is, you--can make a better world, starting today!
Sometimes the smallest gesture makes the biggest difference. This little book shows how to start--with the small, with the particular, with the individual--in order to make a difference in the world.
Random Acts of Kindness features:
True stories about acts of kindness and generosity of spirit
Suggestions for living more compassionately
Inspirational quotes to get you started
Fans of books such as Chicken Soup for the Soul, A Pebble for Your Thoughts, I've Been Thinking..., or You Can Do All Things will love the encouraging, inspirational stories in this new Random Acts of Kindness edition.
