When has someone shown you a kindness that took you by surprise?

What if we interrupted our days more often to do the same for others? And what if each time we saw an opportunity to lift someone up, we acted on it without hesitation?

Sometimes we miss opportunities to love and bless people. Busyness, awkwardness, and insecurities can keep us from responding to interruptions that have been set in our path for a purpose. I want to encourage you to live alert to the people and situations you’re nudged to be aware of, and make a habit of the following:

• Make eye contact when you talk to people.

• Respond patiently to people’s rudeness.

• Speak an encouraging word to someone in line with you.

• Acknowledge a cashier or server by name.

• Check in on the friend you haven’t heard from in a while.

Continually soften your heart so that it beats for what makes life valuable - people. As you stay close and in-tune with your intuition, you will start to see what your assignments of love and kindness are for that day! Live Boldly. Love Big. Pass it On! … just like our friends at the Red Glasses Movement inspire people to do! (Daily Day-Maker ideas!)
