Give more than you get

When I saw these post-it notes, I found myself nodding and saying yes and wondering which one I should print out. Where do I most need the encouragement?

Is it this?

Absorb Everything

Or maybe this?

Be the most passionate person in the room.

I couldn’t help but email compulsive doodler and optimist, CP.Writer, and ask if he’d be so kind to answer my (modified) “tagged: kindness” questions. His reply: “I’d like that very much, please.” I like it very much, too.

1. How did you come up with the idea for this project?

I started this in mid-January when the noise about the recession was at its loudest. Everything – the news, the talk – was really negative. I started this project to cheer myself and people around me up.

2. Do you feel like leaving these post-it-notes around are good deeds?

I think it has some positive effect. People who’ve found the post-it notes have told me that in small ways. People also leave comments on the blog and on the Facebook page.

3. What one of the tips do you forget the most or which one do you feel like you do the best?

Ha, I forget most of them! That’s why I need to remind myself.

4. What color best captures kindness to you?

Van Gogh thought that yellow represents friendship. I agree.

6. Can you sum up your best intentions with one word?

Love.
