Idea of the Week
149.jpg“I received my smile cards last week and was itching to use them! I decided to go to a sandwich shope and ordered my meal and then added $5 to buy a gift card. When my order was placed I gave the gift card back to the cashier with a smile card and asked her to do me a favor and give it with the $5 meal card to whoever she wanted to, someone next in line or coming later in the day. I have no idea who got the gift card but the cashier gave me most heartfelt smile and said “how cool is that”! I was happy to see that the smile chain had already started! I love it!” –anonymous

Comment of the Week
“Simplicity in a busy day, a child who seems alone, and elderly man and/or woman whose eyes meet mine and I want to say hello. Kindness is so gentle, so free, so easy to pass along. I was raised with many of my mother’s friends around and they were always so kind, smiling and a gentle hug or words of praise. Back then, kindness for your neighbor was simply a part of life – uncomplicated and extended with love and gratitude. It truly is so easy to be kind. Just fill your heart with love, put a smile on your face and look people straight in the eyes. You may find that a smile and grateful “hello” comes your way!” –msn53
What is a “smile card”? It’s a game of kindness — do something nice for someone and leave a card behind asking them to pay it forward. To date, 979,865 cards have been shipped without any charge.
