compile a list of small or big ways to make the world a better place. In the nature of Jewel, what are things you feel you could do to help contribute to the world. I'll go first with some things I have been thinking about.

1 - Read the missing person/child posters you see and actually keep an eye out for these missing people.
2 - Volunteer time or food/supplies to homeless shelters and soup kitchens
3 - Wave at people and say "hello" or "how are you?" when you get the chance
4 - When you do a favor for someone, tell them not to pay you back, but pay it forward to someone else (for more info on this, watch the movie Pay It Forward)
5 - Stand up for someone who can't or won't stand up for themselves


>>Ok I am hoping we can all pool ideas together and make a list of sort of inspirational things that maybe we will think of during our daily lives and possibly even accomnplish some of these

These are some more in addition to yours!

6 - Donate regularly to charities when possible, even if it's only a small amount
7 - Visit elderly relatives and get them supplies that they need. They may be too old to do it themselves
8 - If you're able, give blood whenever you can.
9 - A small amount of appreciation can go a long way, so please remember to always say 'Thank You'
10 - Value energy and only consume what you need!

Great idea, especially given the New Year!!

11 - Try to be considerate of other people and put yourself in their shoes; examples: employees at a store you might be getting aggrivated with, people driving slow on the road, etc.. have patience, you don't know what they may be going through at the moment
12 - (An extention of #1) Read lost pet signs and keep an eye out for lost pets, try and help these people re-connect with their animals
13 - Try to have enlightening conversations with people about things that may help them in their lives (or you in your life) just by giving them information about things and encouragement

14 - Open your mind!!

16. Don't be a sourpuss remember to smile (nothing to do with my signature)

17 - Be happy for people when things work out for them, instead of being jealous and thinking that you deserve it more

[Little Bird]

16 - Always remember your friends even when you don't need them, otherwise they may not be there when you do

17-Don't spit in public (I'm sorry but I find it rude and disgusting)
18-Don't whistle at people Call them mister or ms or mam or sir (another huge pet peeve)
