I do it every once in a while. It feels good to
do something nice for someone, but not let them know it was me. I once put $150 in an envelope for a fellow worker who was having a rough time -- about to have his lights turned off & it was a week before he'd get his financial aid and student paycheck. I typed a note and put it in the envelope: This is not a gift, but an obligation. One day soon you'll be on your feet and someone else will need help. Please pay it forward.
There was no way for him to tell who did it, and of course, we all denied it. He continued to work in our office for the rest of the school year, never found out who had helped him. The not knowing changed him. Anyone who came into the office could have been the one. His attitude completely changed -- from just getting by to treating everyone with love. This experience was worth many times the money I invested.

I don't think it sounds crazy...
IN fact I think I saw this done on Ophrah....people need to be constantly reminded though...to be kind and helpful to one another. One big Ophrah Show isn't enough.
I'll try to do something nice this week for someone....but really, I'd rather have someone do something nice to me...LOL!
