Pay It Forward


Have you seen the movie Pay it Forward?
 It is an amazing movie (based on the novel by Catherine Ryan Hyde) with the simple idea that all it takes is one idea to change the world.  Trevor (Haley Joel Osment) starts a chain reaction of goodness for his social studies project.  His idea was that you do a favour for three people that really helps someone, anyone, even a perfect stranger, and tell him or her not it pay it back, but to pay it forward to three other people who, in turn, each pay it forward to three more and so on and on it goes.
It is a very simple idea, one with all kinds of possibilities to spread goodness and love in the world.  Catherine Ryan Hyde started the Pay It Forward Foundation in 2000 and it’s a global movement today.  The website address is http://www.pifexperience.org/ , they have pages on facebook, twitter and others.  It’s a beautiful movement to get involved in, all you have to do is do something good for someone.
In Love and Light
