What's the last thing you shared with someone?
Share something with someone.
Research shows that sharing is good for you and that kindness breeds kindness. I have a friend who is fond of explaining that people think he's generous because he's wealthy, yet for him it's the other way around: he's wealthy because he's generous. But of course, money doesn't need to be a part of the giving equation at all.
Today, share something small or make plans for a grand scheme. Make your neighbor a pie, give someone a ride, share your afternoon chocolate bar with a coworker, give someone your time, take a friend to a play, or donate something delicious to the food bank's bin at your grocery store.
All over the country, people are starting sharing and exchange groups for tools, cars, gardens, books—you name it! Take the first step by making a list of things you have to share and a list of things you'd like to borrow. Then share it with your friends and see what happens.
We want to hear about your experience. Share your plan in the comments or on Twitter or Facebook.
