Twenty years ago our lives changed forever. Today, every act of kindness, every act of service to each other is an opportunity to honor those we lost.
20 Acts of Kindness Be nice.
Ask "How can I help?" Ask yourself and others: What makes you smile when you get up in the morning? Open a door for someone and hold the door for the person behind you. Remember that everyone is the hero of their own story. Put your phone away and be an active listener. Avoid interrupting others when they are speaking. Say please, thank you, and you’re welcome. Practice Empathy. Avoid gossip, especially on social media, unless it is good news. Write a thank you note, on paper. Reach out to the elderly and those who may be alone. Be kind to yourself and count your blessings. Share what you have learned with others. If you can, say YES! Jump in when children ask for donations or help with a project. Make eye contact and smile. Avoid jumping in to criticize others. Continue to always thank those healthcare workers, FedEx, UPS and USPS folks, grocery store employees and truck drivers for a job incredibly well done. Show up for our town's 9/11 services this weekend.
Thank You! An Anonymous Neighbor
