Introducing a feel-good experiment!

by Meredith · Comments

By now you probably know that we're fanatics about spreading inspiration to people through kind words, uplifting statements, and thought-provoking questions. And we love to hear from our worldwide community when they write to us and say that we made a difference in their day, their life, or the lives of people they know.

We're always on the lookout for other people who are inspiring the world through kind actions, no matter how large or small. And as we head into the weekend, we thought you might like to hear about other people creating a web of kindness by giving small amounts of money to perfect strangers. Just a few dollars here and there can create some wonderful momentum.

Here's a beautiful article from the writers of good.is:

and here's a blog from a small-time philanthropist who's paying it forward every day:

Have you ever done anything like this? Would you ever? If you have a few extra dollars to spare, this weekend might be a good time to start! Share your stories with us right here, or leave us a comment on our Facebook wall.
