    About this ebook

    Have you ever smiled at a stranger and watched their face brighten? That is a random act of kindness. Have you ever paid for someone’s groceries just because? That is a random act of kindness as well. Some acts are kind of small and they seem like they don’t matter but they do! They matter to someone. Look, we can’t all leave millions of dollars to a children’s hospital or build a library in a community that no longer has one but we can all do little things that make someone else’s day just a little brighter. And that is what this book is all about.

    Unlike other “acts of kindness” books you are going to find a looser structure here. You won’t find Day One: do this because this is real life and that means you need a little flexibility to work with. So, instead consider this a guide, a gentle suggestion on what you might like to do or ways to incorporate more kindness into your life.

    In this book you will learn:

    • The many types of acts of kindness from the very simple to the large.
    • How many of these acts require nothing more than a bit of time, no money needed.
    • How to move to some of the larger scale acts and help more people at once.
    • How these actions will help you in the process.

    Kindness is contagious. If one person is kind to someone who needs it they will be more likely to be kind to someone in return and so on. Hopefully this book will help you see that you can do more with a smile and a kind word than you ever thought would be possible.

      Acts of Random Kindness - Annette Marsh

      Introduction

      I have always held open doors for people. I try to smile and coo at every baby I see. I have not a single qualm about telling someone that I love their hair or that their boots are just the snazziest things I have ever seen. Most of the time I get a smile and sometimes some conversation in return, and this pleases me. It never once dawned on me that me being me had a name and that some people actually need some goading or a guide to do it!

      In the general scheme of things, random acts of kindness may be just a little more than being friendly or having good manners but those are both great places to start if you ask me. And that brings me to this little story. I have a friend who is a perfectly well-mannered gentleman but he is also a little brusque, a little reluctant to engage with people around him. He would benefit from learning little acts that make him friendlier.

      On the other side of that coin is his mother. The perfectly lovely woman, friendly as she can be but she also tends to blurt things out without thinking and sometimes her manners are a little on the, shall we say, scattered side. It’s not that she is outright rude, just sometimes not as conscious as others as she could be. This lovely woman would benefit from learning the acts of kindness that are more about manners.

      And so you see two perfectly nice people and how they can benefit from this book.

      I bought a book about random acts of kindness once. It was split up as a calendar, and you had a task every day. How awful, I thought at the time.
