So people, what do you have planned for tomorrow?
Monday, February 16, 2009 by Philly0381 | Discussion: Community
No need to ask this question if tomorrow wasn't another day for a Holiday. Not sure how this qualifies as a Holiday, but it does qualify as a special day.
Tomorrow is Random Acts of Kindness Day in the U.S. Check out the above link. Did this one sneak up on you or did you know about it?
Any special plans?

It just seems that lately I can't figure out the pulse of the community here.
Lost of threads with replies on how bad the economy is and how bad life is in general but give you folks a chance to spread just a little sunlinght or happiness around by doing an act of kindness that might bring up the spirits of your fellow human beings and you make jokes. Maybe that's how you get through your day, and I think I understand that. But folks, this wasn't supposed to be all about you.
Maybe it is just so much easier to complain and whine and point fingers and never attempt to to do anything about the problems we all face. I know, sounds very much like a rant from me or just my true feelings coming out. I suupose we all need to do this at times, it's good not to hold things in.
Of cource I'm looking at this the wrong way, no one ever want's to toot their own horn or say what they may have done or are doing to spread the kindness around to others that may need it. Way to much like patting yourself on your back.
I now feel a lot better and will try and not let this ever happen again. Oh by the way, did anyone see the movie 'Pay It Forward'
You all have a nice day.

That was a good film, Philly.
I think folks were trying to cheer each other up .... and that's OK....no? 
And to the folks who were honest and returned the mistaken amounts....Good for you!

Taking peoples minds off of the dismal current state of the world by using humor is an act of kindness,imo.There are 365 days in a year to do kind acts and good deeds,why limit it to one day? Be kind to everyone you meet as they all have their own personal battles to fight.

Pay it forward was a great movie Philly! I try my best to do something everyday....My annual New Yrs resolution never changes...and is the best kept.....to make at least one person a day smile! Smiles and laughter are contagious...and the easiest to give!

It wasn't random, but today my act of kindness was to pay my power bill to help keep a power worker employed for another day. 
However, today's random act of kindness was by the taxi driver who brought me home fron grocery shopping... he could see that I was physically struggling and helped me inside with everything. Most taxi drivers won't even get out of the car to unload the boot (trunk) so they can get away quicker, much less help carry stuff inside.
A big for the taxi driver x
