On Friday September 6th I am participating in a 24 hour day of compassion exercise as part of my Social Psychology class. The assignment is to do acts of compassion during this 24 hours period and then write an essay about what we did, what the effects and amplifications were, etc.
Today, I challenge you to join me and do 24 hours as a consciously compassionate person on
Sept. 6,...that is THIS Friday!
We are in a time in this world right now, where it would pay well to amplify compassion. I figure what better way to amplify this than by bringing it to my community. Oh, and you don't even have to write an essay, but you do get to experience the feel good out of it.
So, do what you have the heart, the means, and the time to do. It can be giving to your favorite
charity, visiting someone who is in a nursing home and has no one to visit them, donate to
Kiva, read a book to someone who cannot read for themselves, volunteer at a shelter, go visit a sick child or sign up to be a big sister/big brother for children, donate clothes/household items, buy someone lunch or share some of your time over a cup of coffee...be creative and see what you come up with.
Post here share your intentions if you like, and tell us about your day and how it affected you, after the 24 hour period has expired. That's all there is to it. So are you game?
