In this world, people pick fights more often than they pick flowers or noses, and playgrounds and internet forums are places where the strong pick on the vulnerable. Anonymous flame messages and gratified walls have taken lives, and the circle of hate seems to be ceaseless.
However, what if we were to try to break this curse? What if we made a concious effort to be nice to a stranger and build bonds of friendship? After all, a few nice words can heal hundreds of hurt hearts.
With this sentiment in mind, we have begun "Project Appreciate". Its principles are simple and not time consuming at all. In those moments when you feel positive and nice, just go to a random person's message board, and send them a cheery message. Maybe you'll even gain a friend!
This might seem like too small a thing to make a fuss over, but believe me when I say this tiny act could make someone's day when they're really down.
"Be the change you want to see in the world." - Mahatma Gandhi
So, here's to Project Appreciate, where we help positivity go around.
Stay awesome, peeps!
