In the interest of spreading more joy, I’m proposing that today, Thursday, January 15th, we each engage in one act, either here on or outside of LJ, which brings joy to another person, in the hopes that that person will spread that joy further, and exponentially onward.
Some ideas I had of things we could do:
Write a fic, make an icon, make a vid, or make a fanart for someone. Buy someone paid time or userpics. Leave someone a nice comment. Say something nice about something fannish someone else loves. Say something nice about something fannish you love and encourage squee (and squee on someone else’s post if they make one!). Offer to beta for someone. Offer to donate five dollars to the charity of someone's choice. Send flowers to an online friend in a different city. Buy someone you know online a present. Or a virtual present. Plant a tree or a flower in someone's honor and take a picture of it and post it to your LJ. When somebody cuts you off at work, wish them well and hope they get where they’re going safely. Make somebody a friendship bracelet. Or a construction paper heart. Call someone you love and tell them so. Or anything else you can think of!
Then on Thursday, make a post saying what you've done (or a note that it's More Joy day), and that will hopefully help spread things further.
What do you think? Are you in with me?
I gave Greg my copy of Sir Apropos of Nothing because it's just his sort of book
I will offer icons and/or drabbles to anyone who asks :)
