PAY IT FORWARD

Yesterday was Pay It Forward day, a day that was created to challenge us to pay it forward in kindness to others. There is actually a website set up specifically for this day and created to encourage others to participate all around the world. You can check out the website here. Pay It Forward Day

I wanted to challenge you friends and readers to consider the ways that you can pay it forward in your own life.  We lead increasingly busy lives and come in contact with so many others everyday. How often do we stop to truly think about the impact that our lives have on those we come in contact with? When I was born I was given the middle name Joy, in so many ways throughout my life this has been a reminder to me that my goal in life should be to find Joy in everything, and share it with others. So this day Pay It Forward day was just a reminder to me that we should be focusing everyday, not just pay it forward day on spreading Joy. Our world is often a scary and less than joyful place and it can be quite challenging to find this joy daily. That is why we should be looking for ways to make each day better for those we come in contact with, especially those who can do nothing in return. So my challenge to you today is simple, Make everyday Pay It Forward day and search for ways to brighten another persons life. I challenge you whether it is financially giving to others in need though a charity or organization that you believe in, or just through the simple kindness to another that you look for ways each day to spread Joy to others lives.
