| http://www.freelancebyu.com/raok.htmRAOK are simple or complex gestures of goodwill and happiness that one gives or participates in to make another happy. the act is RANDOM in that the recipient is a stranger, therefore making this unsuspecting person happier for a moment in time or a lifetime..... ya neva know...... Random acts of kindness (not sure how this is supposed to be pronounced)....... but I like to think of it as "ARE ALL OK?" we know that answer is NO and doing a RAOK makes an impact, I promise! RAOK IS NOT JUST A "holiday thing" I try to participate in at least ONE RAOK per month, really I should try it EVERYDAY.......... but realistically 1x per week would work best! READ ON FOR ISPIRATION! RAOK is NOT just a kind act to someone YOU KNOW it is Random in that the person is NOT EXPECTING kindness from a STRANGER, in our world, we have become to expect acts of kindness that have strings attached, only from friends, neighbors and family.... RAOK are sometimes done anonymously, but other times you may just make a friend! |

| I agree...even if simple acts like letting the car coming out of a side street go first or holding the door open for a lady with a baby and a cart full of groceries. There are a million RAOK's you can do in a day! And I always try to smile and say something nice to a grumpy cashier who has been on her feet all day. Sometimes that's all it takes to make her day :) |
