Day 101: Two-Pocket Folder

Today I gave a paper folder to a student who needed one. When he asked, I at first tried to give him a file folder because it was handy.  He said, "No, forget it. I need the other kind."  When I went through my cabinets to find him the type he wanted--just a simple blue folder with two pockets, he was sincerely happy and grateful.  It was a simple gift today, but I still made a difference for someone, however small.  I don't want to moralize, but it does have me wondering what a day would be like where everyone tried to do something nice or give something to the people around them.  What would it be called?  Do Something Nice Day?  Who would participate?  Who wouldn't?
