Paying It Forward

Well...tomorrow is the big day.  I'm still getting ready with lists of things to do.  Ideas and feedback are always appreciated!  

A friend asked me today if what I hope hope to achieve is sort of like the "Pay It Forward" idea.  I said "ya I think part of it is."  Initially I hadn't thought of being inspiring to anyone.  I've never considered myself inspiring at all....but usually the person that needs inspiring!  (I am a terrible pessimist).  So yes, I really do hope people will feel good and pass on the good deed at some point.  It doesn't have to be something big or flashy, but something as subtle as a kind word or smile to someone who really needs it can really make a difference.  As someone pointed out in a comment yesterday "The world could use a few million angels like you this year." We all have a little "angel" inside of us.   I guess that's how we get to a million...by Paying It Forward.

So what will I do tomorrow?  All I will say is that it involves helium ......
