Paying it Forward

AZMom is participating in a pay it forward plan. I signed up and now I am paying it forward. Let the fun begin!

HERE ARE THE RULES: The exchange focuses on doing an act of kindness without expecting anything in return other than that the recipient will, in their turn, pass the kindness along and pay it forward in their own way.

This is how it works... I am going to agree to send something fun, inspiring or uplifting to the first 3 blog owners who post a comment on this entry (please leave your e-mail address if I don't all ready have it.) In turn, those three will post this information and pick 3 people they want to send something to and so on. If you are interested in participating, be one of the first 3 blog owners (or for me, commenters, even if you don't have a blog!) to leave a comment!

The little something you send can be something you made, bought, were given or found. No biggie, just a gift that will make the person smile. Maybe something unique from where you live? There are no cost restraints, but don't go crazy! If you'd like to join in, leave me a comment so I will know you are playing, too. And please promise that you will then post about this on your blog, link to me, and then send something to the first three people who sign up to play along through your blog. Remember that kindnesses don't have to involve money; there are untold ways to help others every single day, everywhere you go; just look around.

What a neat way to have fun and be blessed all at the same time! I look forward to seeing who all joins in the fun.

  1. What a really nice idea! I'll play along, though I won't be able to post about it until later - maybe even tomorrow if I can remember for that long ;)

  2. I love this idea. With all the stress of gas prices, the economy, the election, grocery prices and such it will be nice to do something that can lift others up. I love this idea, oh I said that already, lol.
    I would love to join.
    Pretty sure you have my email addy but just in case.

  3. Damama, the time you spent leaving comments on my son's blog was so very nice and truly made his day. I think you already pay it forward.

  4. Dragonstar - Thanks for playing, girlfriend! I've had something special for you for a while now but kept forgetting to get your address. Now I can kill two birds with one... oops... no killing of birds! ;o) I can combine activities. LOL! xoxoxo

  5. Neat idea!

    I haven't decided how I could play along, yet.

    Thanks for all the comments you left on our blog. We'll answer them sometime soon. I tagged you for a meme over there (or is it up here?).

  7. What a wonderful idea....... but then you always do and say the nicest things. Getting an email , or reading a post from you is like being warmed by a bright ray of sunshine on a horribly dismal and gloomy day.

    Hugs.
