A-Z Challenge: Random Acts of Kindness beginning with "J"

Throughout the A-Z Challenge I'll be blogging through the alphabet using each letter to create a list of Random Acts of Kindness. I've been collecting RAK ideas for some time now as I gear up to the 2016 launch of a project dear to my heart: B(e) Kind 366. I'll be performing an act of kindness every day of the leap year starting January 1st, 2016 while raising funds for World University Service of Canada (WUSC), an organisation that changed my life.

I'm starting each post with a synonym (of sorts) for kindness. I added this part to my posts because of an amazing movement I am a part of 1000 Voices Speak for Compassion. We link up monthly and blog about changing the world for the better. It's magical really. We're even on Twitter! @1000Speak

J is for Joy
Journal prompts

Jar of Sunshine
Journal - keep one for kindness, gratitude, or just because. Leave a blank journal and a note
encouraging the finder to write.
Joy in a Jar
Just - say hello, good-bye, good morning, or good night!
Just Because Plate

That's it for my "J" List! The more Random Acts of Kindness ideas the better, so please add to my list by leaving suggestions in the comments!

 If J isn't the best letter to try out your Jane knowledge, I don't what letter is! Check out my super fun "If Jane Austen Blogged A-Z" post, test your Janeite knowledge, and win some Jane Austen swag!

    I smile and say hello to people in the street - they sometimes don't know how to respond :-)

    I'd never heard of 1000 Voices - thanks!
    And thank you for chasing after so many Mini-Alex photos. (I'm going through all of the posts right now.)

      I'm proud to be a part of 1000 Speak! I hope you'll consider participating. The Mini-Alex hunt was good fun and and super idea to promote your book.

    I'm an agent of randomness, and kindness is something this world needs more of. :)
