We all spend our lives,with our family,friends and loved ones.Working,happy,sad and what not.At the end of the day,when you lie back,you ask a question to yourself,what can i do to make a difference in someone's life?or to contribute to make this world better?That where your inner sensations are triggered. I would like to know from each one of you,what would you do to make a difference in someones life or to make this world better?

I think there are many things you can do to make a difference in someone's life. Sometimes small things can make a big difference. I have been involved in different kinds of voluntary work eg work with the mentally disabled, and I have also worked at a nursing home on a voluntary basis. Right now I am selling magazines for a lung association. When I read about something called "random acts of kindness" I was attracted to the idea (=to help strangers who don't expect it). Leaving small amounts of cash for people to find is an example of a random act of kindness. I have done that a couple of times. I once left some money at a busstop close to a shelter, half an hour later it was gone. I'll never find out who picked it up, I just hope that it helped somebody. Sometimes I have bought lottery tickets and left them at public places for someone to find. If I use a public toilet I sometime hide some coins behind the toilet for the cleaner (or someone else)to find. Those small things are not going to change the world ;-) but it is my way to spread a bit of kindness and make a (small) difference.

You don't have to make a big step just to make a difference in this world. One person's good deeds can already make a big difference to others. inspire others to do good and be a better person.
