I have resolved to do something nice for someone for every single day in 2013. It is a popular idea now to "pay it forward," but I'm going to prove that it can be done every single day. And I'm going to see how popular and acceptable it really is, from the reactions of people to my kindnesses.

Kindness 112 (I think)
Today I went to the gym with the kids before their swimming lessons. A friend of mine knows the cafe owner personally, and has nothing but good things to say about how hard he works and how good his food is. It's all made at the facility from scratch and it sure looks and smells delicious. I decided it would be nice for him to hear some compliments so I told him about our mutual friend and that she thinks he's awesome. I also told him that his food smells wonderful every time we go in (but it defeats the purpose of me going to the gym if I'm too hungry). He laughed and said thank you. People who work so hard at their own business need reminders sometimes that it is appreciated, and that was my kindness for the day.
