A Pittsburgh woman who set out on a mission of random kindness last year as "Secret Agent L" said more than 700 "agents" are now working with her cause.
"We're letting people know there's someone out there who isn't buying into the anger and the hate and the yuck that is out in the world. We're making deliberate choices to do what's good."
"You don't need large sums of money to make a difference in someone's life, you don't need to be rich, you don't need to be famous -- you just have to care," she said.
I don't tell because it's a personal thing.

Nice. Brings a feeling of peace, doesn't it? And lightness.

I really do believe we've lost, as a society, the 'art' of being kind.
It became outdated - when I'm not quite sure - but what I am sure of it's on the verge of extinction these days!
Great to hear this woman refuses to let 'kindness' die!
So ATS - what 'random acts of kindness' have you been a participant in - on either the giving or the receiving? And what can you do here on ATS to be 'kind'?
peace
