David In Indy:
Smile at a stranger
I always appreciate it when a total stranger smiles at me. It makes me feel good.
A simple smile can change someone's day. I think the world has forgotten this. Strangers are people too, with feelings. Just because we don't know someone doesn't mean we can't smile at them!
Smile at people when you walk past them! :D
I always add a "Hey! How you doing?" when I smile at someone. And even if they don't answer me, I made them feel important.
We've become so disconnected from each other. Often times I think a simple smile would go a long way in making this world a friendlier place to live. Don't you? :D

I sure do, David! :)
Another idea: Park 'n Walk or Bike:
Especially in the summer. I know that we can get so used to the comfort of our vehicles, but if you are not going very far and it is a lovely day, park your car and go for a walk or a bike ride.
Benefits:
- Less carbon dioxide in the air
- Money saved on gas
- A chance to clear your head
- Who knows, you may run into a neighbor or an old friend on the street
- It'll be good exercise!
