How to Do It:

Take a few minutes to write a simple, uplifting note. It could say something like, “You are amazing just as you are,” or “Keep going—you’ve got this!” Place it somewhere public where someone will find it: on a park bench, a library book, a café table, or even under a windshield wiper. The goal is to brighten someone’s day with a small, unexpected moment of encouragement.

Why It’s Powerful:

A kind word from a stranger can remind someone that the world is full of care and positivity. Even if you never see the person who finds it, you’ve planted a seed of hope.
