While Thanksgiving is a time to pause and give thanks, it is also a great time to GIVE thanks (as in doing something nice for others)!
Think of all the things you say thank you for without even thinking about it during the day: the hot cup of coffee handed through the drive through window, the wave of gratitude to the driver who let you break into traffic, the person walking into the building right before you who held the door open for you, the customer service rep on the phone who helped you find a solution to a problem. We may not stop to think of the small things people do for us, and we probably don't ponder the positive impact these small actions have. But we can sure benefit from turning around and giving acts of kindness back to others.
Performing random acts of kindness can be fun and contagious. Once you start looking for ways to do something good for others, you start to feel good and want to keep going. And those around you can sense the positive energy and be inspired to do the same. Acts of kindness may feel good, but there are real benefits to being on the giving side. These are just some benefits to being generous:
This Thanksgiving, be sure to stop and think about all you have to be thankful for. And be sure to pass that gratitude on to others through a random act of kindness.
