Pay it Forward Day is an annual worldwide holiday dedicated to kindness. It encourages people to do acts of kindness, regardless of whether a particular person has paid you with kindness or not. The holiday is celebrated on April 28.
History
Doing unselfish acts of kindness is a great way to make life a little happier. Kindness as an important quality for anyone is described in both biblical stories and moral standards. There is nothing wrong or embarrassing about helping others unselfishly.
Pay it Forward Day encourages you to pay it forward with kindness. If you have been given kindness, then continue the initiative yourself and shower kindness on others. This way you can make the world a kinder place, not in words, but in deeds!
Kindness allows people to enjoy their lives and feel happy. They will never be without help, because they are surrounded by kind people!
Interesting facts
- Good deeds contribute to the production of dopamine, the happiness hormone. It lowers stress levels, allowing you to strengthen your immune system.
- One of the clearest examples of a good deed from the Bible is the parable of the Good Samaritan. Legend has it that he helped a Jew who had been attacked by robbers, despite the blood feud between the nations, when all the other passers-by simply lowered their eyes and walked by.
How to celebrate
Do more good deeds on this day! The holiday is a great excuse to try your hand at charity. Help, for example, orphanages, both financially and materially: bring toys, clothes, etc.
