Teacup of Kindness - Randomness #29-26

Doing random acts in the month of March...

#29 - As a special treat over Easter weekend I taped packs of popcorn to Redbox locations. I picked two outside locations to visit. I didn't want to do them in indoor locations as I was afraid the clerks would think the person was stealing from them (haha). I hope those who rented a movie had a fun surprise!

#28 - I put together a goodie bag for our postman. I wanted to thank him for going through the wind, rain, and snow to deliver our mail.

#27 - We went to Florida at the end of March with our group of friends. I thought it would be a fun idea to bring back gifts for some of my close friends who didn't ask for anything. Not only would this be unexpected, but remind them I value our relationship (friendship, family, etc.)

#26 - I acted polite for a whole week. This seems like an easy thing to do, but I think it gets lost in our society with technology and everyone being in a rush. I feel like I am a very polite person, but I realized that politeness and being nice are two different things. For a whole week while driving to work I tried to be a polite driver by not tailgating, letting people go in front of me, not speeding or cutting people off, etc. This is surprisingly hard when you have a 40 minute commute to work! I also made sure I held the door open for people when I could, and when possible thanked people for their actions. How you treat others says a lot about you, and hopefully I put a smile on someone's face.
