Assignment #3: Do Something Kind For Someone You Do Not Know


This week’s exercise is intended to help you to experience how it feels to do something kind when repayment is not likely. Please extend a kindness action to a stranger, someone you do not know on a personal level. Typically, these are the people you pass by or hear about as you go on with your day. It’s holding the elevator door open for someone. It’s anonymously buying coffee for someone behind you in line at the coffee shop. It’s going to the library and putting up money for the next $10 worth of fines. That sort of thing. 

Before completing your act, please take two minutes to watch this video. Consider it inspiration.

After having completed your act, please post in the appropriate comments section what you did. Again, be sure to remind us who you are when you post. And for fun, please consider telling us your favorite dessert.
