I've recently taken to leaving little positive post-it messages inside the books that I borrow from the library. Sometimes it'll be as simple as, "Have a nice day!" Other times, I'll leave a suggestion for a random act of kindess (such as "Smile at a stranger today.") or a nice quote.
I thought it would be a fun idea to make the concept more global.
The Idea: Leave positive post-it notes for others to find. In the pocket of a plane/train/bus seat; in the changing rooms of a department store; in books you borrow from the library; on the windshield of someone's car; on a carton of milk in the grocery store - the possibilities are endless.
The Cost: The cost of a pack of Post-It notes.
The Benefit: Maybe someone will find your note...or maybe they won't. Just the act of leaving it will make you feel 10 times better! :)

I've been doing this for over 25 years. I use notepaper, emails, even chalk when I can't find writing materials. I even call up friends randomly just to say 'have a nice day' or post a little paragraph in the mail. Wonderful feeling to get something other than a bill in the mail.
i know this makes me evil, but most days i would be annoyed to find something like that. but i love the getting random mail thing.
ooooh me likes!
