I have met some kind souls on Swap-bot. Women and men who reach out and make a difference all over the world. So, let's share the kindness with one another and start a "kindness pandemic". So here is what we will do:

  • Do a kind act for someone else. Here are some examples: let someone pull out into traffic in front of you, take dinner to your neighbors, help someone older than you with a task like taking out the trash, give $10 to a charity...you get the idea. Do a kind deed big or small.

  • Now here comes the fun part:

Write a brief letter to 2 partners and tell them what you did and how it made you feel. When you get your letters go out and do 2 more kind deeds.

We can make a difference.

So...any "no sends" in the last 6 months, newbies with a light profile, and anyone with less than a 4.5 must contact me before signing up. If you don't, I will eliminate you from this swap.

Let's all have fun with this and make a difference in someone else's life.

What a wonderful idea; thanks for thinking of it!

I love, love, love this swap!! But I do have a question. Is there a certain time frame when the kind deeds should be done or can they be things we've already done?

People don't realize that ANY kind deed...big or small...can make a huge difference to someone. It really doesn't take much.

Thanks for having this swap. Hugs, Kelly :-)

KJ - It doesn't matter when the good deed is done. I will leave that up to you.

I'm truly looking forward to this. There's nothing in the world like doing kind things for others.

cerwinrhiannon and gbnaabennett, keep an eye on your mail! I mailed your letters out today.

My two letters were mailed after midnight, so the postmark will say the 16th. I hope that's OK.
