Pay it forward is an expression for describing the beneficiary of a good deed repaying it to others instead of to the original benefactor.
Have you ever woken up angry and depressed and just didn't feel ready for the day? I'm sure most of us have felt this way...that feeling of playing hooky and not wanting to go to work, just to crawl back into bed with a good book and just to sleep the day away.
Sometimes life is hard and tough, and whatever we go through, we just have to push through and finish. Good things and bad things happen to all of us.
Unfortunately, most of us have to work, and we don't have the luxury to stay at home. We have families to feed and other responsibilities that we can't neglect. This is all just part of life...
What if you can change the way that people see the world?
What if you can do something good to change someone's outlook on life?
What if you can lift someone's spirit and make them want to get out of bed?
Kindness cost nothing! Pay it forward! One little act of random kindness, can change someone's life. It can brighten up someone's day, and make them more positive about life. We all try and do good things most of the time. Mostly, so we can feel better about ourselves right? Well what if we could all just get up one day and do something for someone else, and not expect anything in return?
So lift your butt, and go and do something good! I am sure you won't have to look far.
- Pay for someone's groceries while standing in line.
- Give a bigger tip than normal when you eat in a restaurant.
- Help someone across the street or even give your umbrella to someone while it is raining.
For once, don't expect anything and just say PAY IT FORWARD.
If we could start this wonderful trend we could change the way people think about the world.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Please don't forget to pay it forward. Together we can make the world a better place.

Great post!
You know what I remember... Here's your name in lights... what happened to that great initiative of yours William?
It's still going, but I've been lazy about it. Thanks for reminding me about it. I'll do another one tomorrow. I think I know just the person too.
Why the hell does cheetah still have you blacklisted BTW? Have you asked @pfunk or @anyx about lifting it, it's been months, you're still here but very few people are anymore.
Unfortunately the last time I asked they decided against it so I've never asked again. I am still here but can'do much so I've been upvoting and reading! It is sad though because I actually believe in the Steemit platform and believe that there is great potential.
You should ask again. Times have changed.
