You can reward and elevate kindness in other’s behavior anytime you want. That is ONLY if you wish to see more of it in our Society.
Social experiments can be fun and help elevate everyone’s consciousness and energy in the process of having that fun.
There is a guy in my hometown of Ann Arbor, Michigan, who sets up on Liberty Street near Maynard right by the alley and keeps running tally of people that are willing to make eye contact, and a second category of “eye contact and smile”. He has a giant white piece of paper with marks in groups of five keeping track of eye contact, and smiles.
This is something that’s happened recently over the last handful of years since I have visited, and I have noticed him during high traffic days like football games or the art fair and he is very consistent and being present and keeping his sheet visible for all to see.
The first time he checked me for eye contact, and the smile, I went much further, grabbed him, and started dancing with him and told him to make a new column on his sheet for people that make eye contact smile, say hello and dance with him. He told me he would keep me posted as to how many others join in that section of the tally sheet, ha ha.
I like this social experiment here as it just shows someone being really honest in the moment as this guy here is trying to figure out which diapers to buy amongst the choices of colorful packages is interrupted by someone wishing to get a birthday cake for his daughter and he is short five dollars.
The cool thing is that we can do our own social experiments and look for people that are doing good things or simply being polite and kind and go out of our way to exalt them and to praise them.
I will give you an example.
When you are next at a store or a restaurant or a place of business, observe employees as they interact with one of the patrons. It won’t be long before you see one of the Employees or Servers interact and make eye contact and go above and beyond the call of duty as far as executing a transaction, perhaps a warm smile or a joke, again a form of human interaction that isn’t required by their job description.
At that point, you must blow them up to shine light and to throw a whole bunch of public love and recognition to that person.
I like to do it in front of the people at my table so that they can feel the recognition amongst other people and not do it in a private conversation so it might go something like this to my server as he comes back bringing bread to the table in a basket:
“Hey buddy, before we get into Today’s Specials, I just want you to know that all of us saw you go over there to the front door and hold that door for that elderly gentleman, and we all thought that was just so kind and thoughtful of you. We wanted you to know that we recognize that, and we thought that was great”
See what happens.
Take a deep breath and breathe that energy in.
How does that vibe feel?
Incredible right?
To execute this kind of simple interaction one needs to become present in the room connected to their breath so they can observe what’s going on, what people are doing and what kind of interactions are taking place.
When you make a determination when you leave the house that you’re going to spread love and kindness you can always find opportunities to do so, it’s a matter of really making it a priority in terms of how you experience your day and what kind of experience you wish for others to have as part of our collective family of living creatures.
You don’t have to know someone to be kind to them and to share love.
When you leave the house this weekend, think about other people besides yourself and just experience the power of your own energetic ripple in the universe when you come off your love-wallet and share the kindness that is in your heart.
Suddenly, the world doesn’t seem so bad.
The news isn’t all terrible.
People aren’t mean and ugly.
You just experienced the joy and wonder that is waiting for you in your very own life simply by shifting your own energy and impacting the energy of others.
We create our own reality through our thoughts in our actions encourage you to create a reality in your house and in your neighborhood of love and unity in the community.
It cost the exact same as being an aloof, separate cold, standalone person, so why not come over to the warm side and hold hands with that stranger and celebrate your attitude of gratitude.
EVERY DAY:
Love
and
Gratitude
