More Joy Day - Return of the Joy-di!
(Hee hee hee. Sorry, couldn't resist.)
Welcome to the FIFTH annual More Joy Day! (FIFTH, really? Wow. That link, btw, goes to the original post, so the date is off.) The goal of today is for us to seek out and give joy to others, in the hopes that it will expand outward into the world. We're kicking off the year with joy in the hopes of beginning as we mean to end. Now more than ever do we need to turn to kindness over anger, even if just for a day.
The ultimate goal is to do just one joy-filled thing for someone(s) today; either something small, like letting someone in front of you in line or in traffic, or something big, like writing a fic or making a vid or buying a new couch for someone. The smallest amount of joy helps, and is a kindness that wasn't there when you started. You're further encouraged to then post about it and comment here with your link for further joy-sharing.
So! Comment away - and I'll post again later with my own contribution. And you're welcome to link to this post. Happy More Joy Day to you all!
