Hi, everyone - I hope the very end of this horrible year is treating you kindly
Loneliness -- or how to reduce it -- is something I care about. It's a pandemic under the pandemic, and causes so much suffering.
I think the way you start your day - the very first minutes after you wake up - can really set the tone for the rest of the day.
So I have an idea that might not solve anything, but might help people start their day on the right foot.
The idea is a wake-up call service. Every morning, you'd get a phone call with a positive voice message from a random person. Something encouraging, something kind, a funny story... it would vary.
You wouldn't be connected to talk to this person, but you'd have the option to leave your own kind message that could then be used to wake up other people.
My hope with such a service would be to help make sure the first few minutes of your day include some kindness, positivity, and encouragement.
I'd love to hear peoples' thoughts about this. No need to be overly polite - if it's a bad idea, it's a bad idea. Just curious what people think.
Thanks, everyone!
