The Christmas season is a time to spread kindness to ones you know and to those you do not. We should all try to remember it's not just about the gifts you get, but the love you give. Sometimes it's hard to not be a grinch but with these acts of kindness, you'll stay far from turning green!
1. Pay it forward
If you're in the Starbucks line, Taco Bell line or any drive-thru for that matter, pay for the person's items behind you. I'm sure it'll make their day and keep them smiling.
2. Become the "Cake Boss"
Bake some cookies or cupcakes and give them to your friends! Hand them out to everyone! I mean who doesn't have a sweet tooth?!?
3. Stick up some positivity
Buy some sticky notes and write some sunshine filled messages on them. Hang them up in random places and I'm sure they'll warm up someone's heart.
4. Help the homeless
Collect some scarves and gloves and give them to the homeless or leave them places where you have seen them. No one deserves to be cold this Christmas season.
5. Hide some dollars around the dollar store
I saw this act of kindness idea online recently and I thought it was cool. Just hide some dollar bills around a dollar store and some lucky finder who needs it will be blessed.
6. Give your waiter/waitress a generous tip!
Be extra generous and give them a few more dollars then you should once you calculate that tip! They are always working hard.
7. Buy dessert for someone eating alone
It always makes me sad to see a little old man or woman eating out by themselves or anyone really. Send a dessert to their table to know the don't have to be alone this Christmas.
8. SMILE!
When you're out and about, just send smiles peoples way. Smiles can always have an impact on someone's day.
9. Compliment someone
Nothing feels better than a random compliment you weren't expecting. Build someone's confidence this season.
10. Candy cane bomb
Put candy canes on the windshields of all of the cars in a parking lot or put them in random mailboxes! Just a little tasty surprise.
