At the beginning of the winter break we were given a task to pay it forward or achieve one act of kindness. This could be done at any date during the winter break. My act of kindness was on new years eve and I "gave" that act of kindness to my parents when I volunteered to paint our bathroom (white :) just for details O.o) If you want further proof of my brother and I painting the bathroom... ask my parents?? :D Here are some pics of the bathroom! The first 2 pics are just to show the color of the walls before we painted it. Also, before we painted the walls, my dad changed the walls around the tub. I didn't have a plain wall picture, but you can see the green wall on the left side of the picture.


Now for pics with the new wall...

While I was doing this act of kindness, I was not really thinking about taking pictures of the walls or anything like that, it just felt good that I was helping someone and paying it forward, even though it was my parents who I passed it forward to. A few days before I painted the walls of the bathroom with my brother, I also talked to my mom and dad about Pay It Forward, the movie and our task. They both told me that they will pay it forward if I actually did something nice.

Can ONE person make a difference??!?! They sure can! I totally believe in this statement because if one person actually tries to make a difference in someones life, then the person that they helped will most likely want to make a difference in someone else's life and so on....PAY IT FORWARD! :)
