Pay it forward

I watched a movie today called Pay It Forward. This movie is about a 7th grade boy who is givin an extra credit assignment in which he must make an effort to change the world.

He comes up with an idea where he does three big favours for someone, then tells them to do three big favours for someone else, and so on.

So, now I'm gonna try to start this on an online forum, and see if it makes any differences in peoples lives. I don't really expect it to change much, but it might help some people, so its worth a try, right?

All you have to do is do a favour (big or small) for three people, then tell them to pay it forward to three other people. So if someone does you a favour and asks you to pay it forward, do it! Hopefully, this will help some people.

And if you want to put this in your signature to try and advertise it a bit more, heres the link thing.

Thanks for reading. :)

I saw it too, you forgot to mention how he gets knifed! hahaha, anyway I wish the world would do something like that but sadly it doesnt work out like that.

I saw this movie recently. If everyone would only do 3 things.

Yeah, he dies. Pretty dumb..

And fakeit, it oubviously won't happen if you have that kinda attitude lol.

I watch that movie in religion :D That sure was sad when he died though... TREVOR! :(

I'll try to join in, but of course, everyone's hearts are like email inboxes nowadays. they see one of those chain mails and delete it on the spot. well, if i came with a chain of pay it foreward, those sad, angry inboxes would shut it out from their lives and report my voice and actions as spam and carry on their lives.

I hope you get stabbed [bleep].

if that isn't the nicest thing to say =p...

its been tried numerous times online, which leads me to believe it won't work. But it would be nice if the world was that simple.

No, actually I was just saying but it would be nice if everyone did do the three favours so I'm going to put it in my signature for people to see, I tip my hat to the guy who made the thread, nice thinking, I hope people see it, because even if you help one person, then you've accomplished a good job for the day.

Edit: Actually I would tip my hat to you but I don't wear hats :-$ put no one has to know that, lol.

Edit2: And as Vladknight was saying sadly the world isn't like that, and why do I get all the negative comments? lol

Edit3: And I was not laughing at the guy getting stabbed! I was just saying he forgot to say, I just have a really bad habbit of typing lol and hahaha alot, lol.

LastEdit (hopefully): And wishing bad upon others is one of the many things that stops a closer world, I'm not trying to insult you put if we all just try to avoid that, little and old then we'd be one more step closer to world unity.

I saw that movie, it was great. :D Goodluck with you forum.

we did this same thing in my leadership. we watched the movie and every day we had to go out and do one random act of kindness to somebody we didnt know to help better their lives. its really amazing what you can do to help

I love the idea but I don't think it would work out.

There is no guarentee that the person you help will help someone else.

Second, thats a quick way to get poor if your doing "big" things like cars.

Pay it forward wouldn't work for poor people, only those with a decent paycheck.

I say just the random act of kindness in itself is the greatest reward. I wouldn't spoil it by telling them they have to go out and help others, which most wouldn't anyway.

Even if no one else helps, what's preventing you from doing three favours for someone else anyway? If your nice to someone else, it might brighten their mood, and their brightened mood will make some other people happy, and, I guess that could count.

I hope you get stabbed [bleep].

LeonnThat's the point, it's a movie you moron.

please lets not all start fighting and debating we had a misunderstanding end of story, continue on with the topic of the thread, putting a smile on someone's face is a great deed because even if its one person its someone, just like if someone were to help you out, wouldn't you like that? Sure you would, so lets all scratch each others backs.

This'll never work.

Anyway its in a movie, things that happen in movies don't work out in real life.

This'll never work.

Bump

I think the actual moral of this movie was that if you try to help people, you'll get smoked by a car and die.

Just sayin'.

Any British people might want to know that this film is actually on tonight on BBC1.

its a stupid movie first he helps he get mad he helps he die... :wall: :wall:

So, now I'm gonna try to start this on an online forum, and see if it makes any differences in peoples lives. I don't really expect it to change much, but it might help some people, so its worth a try, right?

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."

Ill make sure to pay it forward. :)

good luck with that, but most people here are idiots and wont do it.

Also in the end he gets shanked and dies....hope you dont meet that fate too....

I saw that movie, it bored me greatly, until around the end. Anyways, even though there are some really nice people, this would never work in real life.
