Make the world a better place by doing good deeds.
________________
*Bring your old magazines to a hospital waiting room to make patients' waits a little less nerve racking.
*Write a letter or e-mail to a good friend or family member to let them know how much you value them. Can you imagine opening a letter of that sort? Go on, start the trend.
*Volunteer yourself to walk an elderly neighbour's dog once a week. Getting out for a walk isn't overly easy for many elderly folk, so they'd most likely appreciate this gesture.
*Instead of dropping your head and pretending you don't notice (like the rest of the rush-hour crowd) someone struggling to get a stroller down the stairs, take a second and offer to help.
*Offer an elderly person, a pregnant woman, a physically disabled person - or just someone who looks tired - your seat on the bus.
