The other day I saw this post while scrolling through my Instagram timeline. Here is where you need some background information:
The first thing you should know about me is that I am just about as close to the opposite of religious as it gets. For anyone who might hold this against me, please don't -- some of my closest friends are on the other end of the spectrum and we find a way to get along just great.
The second thing that is important in understanding why this caught my eye if it wasn't because I was so touched spiritually, is that my friend, lets call her Marley for now, and I have an ongoing joke that she is actually the real Jesus. It started accidentally and in no means is meant in a rude or mean manner. Point being, if she is Jesus, then God is her father.
In seeing this post on Instagram, I immediately thought of Brenda and screenshotted the photo to show her and ask why her father never texted me cute things like that ever.
That's when the idea hit me.
Wouldn't it be nice to get cute texts from a mystery person? And I don't mean in a creepy "Someone is watching me" kind of way. Just in a, "Have a beautiful day!" kind of way.
I mean, how nice would it be if God did text you something to boost your confidence once in a while? Or if you woke up to a text from an angel telling you to have a wonderful day?
Lets remember this is an idea that became an experiment.
Objectives:
- put a smile on someone's face
- boost someone's confidence
- help someone start their day off positively
- prevent someone from hurtingthem self
- soften someone's bad mood
- add a little confusion and wonder into people's lives
- be anonymous
Seeing as is was after 1am my time, I texted Marley that I had a plan and need her help but would tell her the next day. I woke up to a text something like, "WHAT'S THE PLANNNNN?"
Marley is ALWAYS up for an adventure. And so, te experiment was born!
