According to a new survey, 83% of us perform a random act of kindness every week. And 65% said they do it every DAY. Which seems REALLY high. Sorry guys . . . a courtesy flush doesn’t count.
56% of the people in the survey said they do random acts of kindness because it makes them feel good . . . 23% said it’s because of their religious beliefs . . . and 16% said they do it because they believe in karma.
If you want to get in on it, here are the five most meaningful random acts of kindness.
1. Leaving your waiter a big tip.
2. Paying for the person behind you when you’re getting coffee.
3. Hugging a friend when they don’t expect it.
4. Taking flowers to a random person at a nursing home.
5. Giving a gift to a random person who seems like they need it.
And apparently this is National Random Acts of Kindness Week. Which isn’t just a random thing some website made up. Congress actually made it a holiday way back in 1994. (Skout)
