 “2010 is finally over, so why not make the resolution to pay-it-foward? Some one dear to me is very inspired after watching the movie ‘Pay-it-Foward’, and we both want to make it a goal to spread the seeds of loving kindness in 2011. We would love for you to join us and help spread the ripples! If you’re reading this let this be your new years resolution – to “do one kind act to three people, and have those three people do one kind act to another three people” and have it become a chain reaction. If we can do this in enough sequences we can cover the city! Three sequences reaches 81 people (3×3=9×3=27×3=81) and fourtheen reaches 14,348,907 people – a little more than Manhattan! So it’s simple, do one kind thing to three people, and lets make a change! 🙂 Remeber that there are always flowers for those who want to see them, so let us all sow seeds of loving kindness! Happy new year everyone!! ” — flowerpower

| ” ‘Kindness can become it’s own motive. We are made kind by being kind.’ It is a quote that I read somewhere, I truly believe it, because I had grandparents that were often rewarded for their acts of kindness. They taught us that if you don’t expect things in return, that is when they will be returned. The same with unconditional love. Don’t expect, and you will not be disappointed. True love is of the heart, not the tongue.” — Cyndy |
