It is the penultimate day of October squares, I really don’t know where the month has gone. I am sure it was only yesterday I was looking forward to a month of benevolent square cataloging. Yet today I am looking back at a month of kindred spirits kindling our imagination and sharing kindness and kindly comments. You have been so wonderful and so kind. I know tomorrow our final day may be sad, however it will I am sure also be uplifting thanks to your incredible collection of squares. What a month, thank you all for grasping so brilliantly that kinda anything goes when we all come together in a square.

Bark makes amazing kindling, but it is still a bit of a random square from me today! So I thought I’d accompany it with a list of ten random kindness tasks. Be kind, choose one to do today;

  • Send someone a handwritten note
  • Bake a cake for yourself and cookies for a friend, or vice versa!
  • Pick up some rubbish in the street
  • Text a compliment to three friends, and include your ‘strongest’ friend
  • Let someone go in front of you in a queue
  • Arrange for flowers or a care package to be sent to someone who lives alone
  • Tell someone you know you are proud of them
  • Sow some seeds or plant a tree (or order some to plant next week!)
  • Donate to charity or a food bank
  • Contact someone you haven’t seen in a while and arrange a phone catch up

  5. i love this Becky – your kindness and thoughtfulness shine out every day and I’ll take your suggestions to heart. Though normally an inveterate litter-picker, that’s one thing I’ve been much warier of lately – especially those wretched disposable masks. The street is not the place to dispose of them! Now – I’m off to tackle some things on your list. After I’ve done the job mentioned here: https://margaret21.com/2020/10/30/christmas-not-yet-but/

    1. How fabulous you are 😀 and yes I must get one of those litter sticks as masks have been driving me crazy. Just don’t get how people can throw them onto the ground
