Have you ever received a random compliment? Has a passerby ever smiled at you while walking down the street? Did you ever find a note in your lunch box? Has a coach ever given you words of encouragement?
Can you remember the feeling of receiving those words or actions of kindness? When was the last time you had that feeling?
Electronic messages are (most often) fleeting. They are read quickly and discarded (deleted) quickly. Although anonymous, the Random Notes Project is meant to bring back the tangible. When was the last time you received a piece of mail that was not a bill, advertisement or catalog? When was the last time you experienced the thrill of tearing open an envelope to reveal a hand written message?
