Pay it Forward

Today is Pay it Forward Day. Even though everyday should be a "pay-it-forward" kind of day, pay special attention to what you can do today to help someone else. The concept and idea became more of a main stream/pop culture idea when the book (and later the movie) was released.
"You see, I do something real good for three people. And then when they ask how they can pay it back, I say they have to Pay It Forward. To three more people. Each. So nine people get helped. Then those people have to do twenty-seven." He turned on the calculator, punched in a few numbers. "Then it sort of spreads out, see. To eighty-one. Then two hundred forty-three. Then seven hundred twenty-nine. Then two thousand, one hundred eighty-seven. See how big it gets?"
So what are you going to do today to change the world?
