Random Acts of Kindness

On Shabbos lunch after the fish and before the cholent each person in my family (and any guests who want to participate) mention at least one act of kindness that they did during the week. After a few weeks, the kids (and the adults, too) find themselves thinking about what act of kindness they can do so that they have something to say at the table - and they start recognising an act of kindness when they do one so they can talk about it at the table. This awareness of doing kindness for other people soon becomes second nature.

Here's a challenge: do one spontaneous random act of kindness in the next hour. Let me know how you go.
