I've always tried to do good works in my lifetime.
I haven't always succeeded. Indeed some of my best efforts went astray to no end of trouble for me and I regretted the attempt after enough chagrin had transpired.
Today is a day about repaying the good deeds done for you.
I have had a number of them and I certainly owe for the help they afforded me.
It is Global Pay It Forward Day, a day to pay back kindness bestowed upon you.
It happens each April 28 and encourages random acts of kindness as payment for some of those kind moments we have had in the past.
The day is based on the book "Pay It Forward" by American novelist Catherine Ryan Hyde which became a film in 2000 starring Kevin Spacey, Helen Hunt, Jim Caviezel, and Haley Joel Osment among others.
The movie is a real tear jerker at the end but the idea is sound and good advice for the citizen of the world who wishes to contribute.
Happy Global Pay It Forward Day and I hope you can repay some of those kind events shared with you.
