“Our character is what we do when we think no one is looking.”

A NYPD officer came to the aid of a homeless man in New York by buying him a pair of boots with his own money. Could this publicized, heart-warming story be just what we need this holiday season? Will this random act of kindness cause a ripple effect in paying it forward? I’ve seen many examples that inspire me to share kindness with others:

What will you do today? Go out and spread some cheer! Let’s keep making the world a better place. Pay it forward!
