This weeks Fitness Friday with Get Fit With Jer is a wee bit different.
This week we’re working out our souls rather than our muscles.
Jer had an idea to spread some love and cheer with random acts of kindness (RAOK). Rambling Rose flowers gave us 50 beautiful fresh gerbera daisies to hand out to strangers.
Jer, Debbie (the newest addition to the MF employee list), Niamh (my wee Irish Assitant) my son Marcello and I headed to Peterborough Musicfest, a popular free outdoor concert in the Kawarthas. We thought it would be so easy and fun. We were a little surprised at how people reacted.

Jer actually had to tell people when he approached them, “Hey I’m not selling anything here”. Eventually though people did catch on and it was fun to watch them take the flower and pay it forward and give it to someone else. Thanks again to Rambling Rose for the beautiful flowers!
Brighten someone’s day. Do something kind, even a smile or a compliment goes a long way.
We could all stand to learn from kids. The kids never questioned the random act of kindness, it was just a nice thing to do, simple as that.
