Saying goodbye to the weekend and hello to another work week can make Monday feel like a major bummer. Instead of drowning your sorrows in coffee and spreadsheets, give your mood a little boost with random acts of kindness.

Find the inspiration to spread tidbits of happiness by looking at handwritten notes from people who took the time to brighten a stranger's day. The recipients of these random acts posted their stories on Imgur and Reddit, but you don't have to share.

If you need even more motivation, visit subreddits like r/UpliftingNews and r/MadeMeSmile.

Happy Monday, Internet!
