Day 35: Give Little Tasks to the People Around You


Instead of instructing my brother to "hold the elevator for me" I instructed other people to "whistle my favorite tune" or "spy on my spouse for me." I cut out the little instruction squares and placed them around town- on cars, parking meters, windows, in books, ect. So now, people will be inspired by my little notes. Hopefully not the "spy on my spouse" one. Or the "be my slave for a day."- that one has so much awkward potential depending on the recipient. But some of them are really sweet; like "tell me a bedtime story." That one I like, its cute and could potentially make someones day. I love bedtime stories- both telling them and hearing them. Instead, I have to read On the Road. Not much of a bedtime story, there are no princesses or dragons or even Baba Yaga. But thus is the life of a college student, sighhhh I wish I was five again.
