Can Post-It Notes Change the World?

postit note

I hope you have a great evening and decide to forward some random kindness in the world.

I found this note on the Metro yesterday, and I began to wonder “what can we accomplish with post-it-notes?”  I don’t know that answer; but I did go buy a pack of em’.

If you were going to leave a note to a random stranger, what would it say?

    When I lived in France I once found a post it stuck to a telephone pole that said “La Vie Est Belle” (life is beautiful). Oddly enough that one little post it really affected me and made me realize I should stop and appreciate life a little more. I’ll always thank whoever wrote that note.

    Did you watch Dead Like Me? It was a TV show about grim reapers. They got all of their “assignments” on yellow post-it notes. Now I can’t see one without thinking about that.

    A friend pointed out sugar packets in Botswana, packets with quotes, that made me think, much like the Post-It.

    Thank you, all, for your wonderful suggestions. I’ve burned more than a few of them into my brain for future use (only The Blonde One could get away with “Hey, Sugar Baby.)

    I hope a few of you will keep some Post-It notes handy in case the mood strikes you.
