Do all things with kindness.

30 Days Of Kindess Challenge
We Heart It

Today, I did something kind. I'm sure my random act of kindness turned that kids frown upside down. I learned that it is important to do something kind for someone else and make their day. Whether or not that person was kind to you in return. Kindness is a characteristic that is more often than not mistaken for weakness which it is not. It can only make you stronger.

Here are a list of ideas you can choose from. Hope you brighten someone’s day today!

  1. Write and send someone a handwritten letter
  2. Compliment a stranger
  3. Send paper thank you notes to five different people
  4. Pay for the coffee, the toll or the bus fare for the person behind you
  5. Let the person who seems rushed cut in front of you
  6. Hold the door open for someone
  7. Help people move
  8. Send your friend a letter
  9. Go through your things and give freely to those in need
  10. Call everyone you know and tell them you love them
  11. Help someone whose car has broken down
  12. Bake a cake for the birthday person
  13. Let someone else have your seat on the crowded bus, light-rail or subway
  14. Do the task no one else wants to do
  15. Listen to someone’s life story — yes, the whole thing
  16. Put money in someone else’s parking meter that’s about to expire
  17. Cook or buy a meal for a homeless person
  18. Donate to your local charity
  19. Leave a generous tip
  20. Take positive small talk to strangers
  21. Take your friend's dog for a walk
  22. Send someone a small gift anonymously
  23. Offer to pick up groceries for an elderly neighbor
  24. Leave your favorite book in a public place with a note
  25. Donate books to your local library
  26. Volunteer at a soup kitchen
  27. Pay for the drinks on the next table at a restaurant
  28. Treat a friend to the movies for no reason
  29. Put a flower on your neighbor’s porch
  30. Give free hugs

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
