How Can I Make Someones day?

1. Generous Tips


Now, tips can become a tense topic nowadays and tends to blow up
very quickly. No surprise to that, every year the U.S ranks another one of our
states as the worst tippers. Currently being San Antonio, Texas (17.1
%). But somehow, the national average of a person eating out is 4.5
per times a week. With that said, workers are already experiencing fallacious
payment. What’s to say if you can't eat at home one-day and make someone else's day by leaving them 10-15 more dollars as a tip?

2. Donate

Get a new shirt or pair of shoes? Give someone else a new shirt and some new shoes too! Make an effort to give away anything old if you’re done with it. Someone else's trash may be someone else's treasure. Be sure to always remember that. 13 million articles of clothing are thrown into dumps every YEAR. Imagine how much that could help the less fortunate.. DONATE!


4. Sticky Note


The classic 'You look good today' passed around in class. Yet, seems to be one of the most effective ways to bring a smile to a face. Plus, the benefits of the sticky note is, if you aren't the social type, it remains anonymous (unless written otherwise). Write one when you get up and leave it somewhere you know someone will find it. Whether it’s at the bus stop, gas station, on the coffee you just finished at the cafe or even at work/school. Pick up that pen and pad!


5. Say Thank you

Everyday I watch people take others for granted. A janitor for instance, cleans up your mess every single day, and they rarely get the recognition that they deserve. Or even to the person holding the elevator, or filling up your cup of coke at dinner. I can assure you that every person doesn't hear it as much as they should. So, stop for two seconds to say that thank you to those who make this world what it is.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
