Gestures I Love

I firmly believe in small gestures: pay for their coffee, hold the door for strangers, over tip, smile or try to be kind even when you don't feel like it, pay compliments, chase kid's runaway ball down the sidewalk and throw it back to him, try to be larger than you are - particularly when it's difficult. People do notice, people do appreciate.

I myself would love when it's done to (for) me. Small  gestures can be an effort, or actually go against our grain ("I am not a big one for paying compliments even i am an easy person who get carry away), but the irony is that almost every time you make them, you feel better about yourself. For a moment life suddenly feels lighter, a bit more --- like an angel.
