Everyday goodness
+++++++++++++++++++
Going through your normal day to day activities, you’ll encounter plenty of opportunities for giving a little boost to the experience of life for yourself and others. Make the most of those opportunities.
Such ordinary instances of goodness might seem trivial. Yet they have a much larger positive impact than you might imagine.
The big, impressive acts of benevolence and attainment receive plenty of attention, but that’s because they are so few and far between. Everyday goodness, on the other hand, reaches people often, when and where they live, in ways that are wholly relatable.
A smile and a kind comment might only affect one single person, yet for that person, it can improve their whole outlook. That positivity could very well spread to others.
Make the offering of small goodness into such a habit that you don’t even notice it. You can be sure, however, that many people will notice.
Such everyday goodness costs you nothing while creating real value in people’s lives, including yours. Make a little goodness every time you can, and somebody’s sure to benefit.
