What can a pound do to make you happy, just for a moment or as the first little step towards a positive change in your life? Do you know someone who needs cheering up? Put that pound into action, NOW! Buy them a little sweet or little surprise, maybe a silly toy from the pound shop will make someone laugh. A single flower can tell someone they are special. Use it for a phone call to a relative or friend who you have fallen out with, or just haven't spoken to in ages. Don't know your neighbours? Buy them some sugar! If you don't know anybody living in your street, estate or apartment block, stop and say hello, do something to get together. Someone just moved in? Knock on their door and welcome them. The Big Lunch in the UK and Know your Neighbour weekend in Ireland are events that can help you generate some community spirit. "Be the change you want to see in the world." Mahatma Gandhi |
