  1. isn't it called Pay It Foreward?


  2. Rent the movie and return it and it will *pass forward* (another person will rent it and the chain goes on and on.)  I am a member of Netflix.  The best deal out there.

  3. to PAY IT FORWARD do someting nice for someone without expecting anything in return.

    Be attentive wherever you are for opportunities to help someone. Perhaps you have an elderly or disabled neighbor who is too proud to ask for help with their yardwork; or maybe you're in a restaurant and see someone who looks like they could use some kind stranger to pay for their meal. You can change people's attitudes about the world through your unobtrusive acts of kindness.

    Do something nice for someone you don't know (or don't know very well). It should be something significant, and not for a person from whom you expect a good deed -- or anything at all, for that matter -- in return.

    Spread the word. If the person thanks you and wants to "repay" you (that is, pay it "back"), let them know that what you'd really like is for them to pay it "forward" -- you'd like them to do something nice for three people they don't know, and ask those three people to do something nice for three more people. The idea is to consciously increase the goodness of the world.

    Pay it forward. When you notice that somebody has done something nice for you, make a note in your mind to practice three acts of kindness towards other people.

    Even small acts, such as paying the bridge toll for the car behind you when you pay for your own, counts. If it makes the world a friendlier place, you succeeded!

    Practicing the "pay it forward" principle will make you alert to unexpected kindness from strangers toward you, and you may find yourself becoming more grateful for everyday kindness and consideration from people you don't even know.

    Most nice things done for strangers will be one-time efforts, so use your head and don't give out your name or phone number; if someone seems to expect you to provide ongoing help but you don't want to go that far, smile and tell the person that you prefer to remain anonymous.

    It can feel risky to help strangers, but trust your own good intentions and don't be afraid to go out on a limb if you believe your actions can help the person.

    Some people will not act grateful, but the benefits may still come around when you are not there to see it. Let your beneficial action be enough in itself and don't expect profuse thanks, or even any thanks at all.

    Do take care of yourself. If you have excess then share with those in need, but don't give away your last dollar. The stronger you are the more good you can do for others.


  4. I thought it was 'p**s it forward'???

    Or 'don't p**s into the wind' or somethen... LOL

  5. yeah its ok but ive been there did that.........

  6. Wrong forum.

  7. It's a modern way of saying, "Do unto others as you would have others do unto you," which is a restatement of...

    Matthew 7:12  "So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.

    and

    Luk 6:31  And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them.

    Luk 6:32  "If you love those who love you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them.

    Luk 6:33  And if you do good to those who do good to you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.

    Luk 6:34  And if you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to get back the same amount.

    Luk 6:35  But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for he is kind to the ungrateful and the evil.

    Read the Bible =D


  8. Yep

  9. To try to make the world a better place, by doing something very nice to someone, and telling them to do the same?
