Today is Be An Angel Day
Do random acts of kindness and celebrate Be An Angel Day.
Whether it is through the hand which offers you a way back to standing or the fireman that pulls someone out of a building, we have all experienced someone in our lives whom we can call an angel.
Whether it was a minor thing on a bad day that just helps us cope or a major action that changed our lives, at some point in our lives someone did something for us which was of great help and put a smile on our faces.
Today (Tuesday) is Be An Angel Day and the perfect day to recognise when someone acted like an angel to you and to in turn be an angel to others.
Start encouraging people to do random acts of kindness to celebrate this day.
The movie Pass It Forward is an amazing example of how random acts of kindness can become something more than any one person could ever have hoped for.

How to celebrate Be An Angel Day?
This would be the day to put others before yourself.
- Cut a neighbour’s grass, maybe watch their children for a few hours so they can eliminate some of the stress in their lives.
- Show someone you are close to appreciation you have for everything they do for you even if it is just a call, a hug or a thank you note.
- Write a note or text to a loved one and let them know how important they are to you or just encourage them. You never know when they might need it.
- Volunteer at a soup kitchen.
- Plant a tree or two, clean up litter at your local park or even give out some flowers to a random stranger.
- Donate some clothing or items from your home you don’t use anymore or just reach out to someone who needs a little help.
Every action we take to help someone can result in many different things occurring, not the least of which are lasting friendships, eternal gratitude or sometimes just a feeling of contentment of doing something good.
No matter what you do, let it be to help others on this day and really embrace generosity on Be An Angel Day.
