Anna posted positive comments on to friends' Facebook pages
Who are you: Anna Redman, Chatelaine intern.
What was your kindness deed: I posted nice, encouraging and appreciative comments on my friends' Facebook pages.
Why did you want to do this: I think it’s nice to tell people when they’ve done something amazing, to encourage them or to let them know they are important to you. Everyone likes to feel valued.
How did it make you feel: I was glad I could bring a smile to someone’s face through a very small act of kindness. People seemed to appreciate the gesture and most of them went out of their way to thank me when all I did was post a few kind words.
The very best of Chatelaine straight to your inbox.
