Somewhere in the world, a little card was just waiting to be found….
Welcome to This Was Meant To Find You, a global kindness project that sends small, anonymous messages of love, encouragement and hope out into the world. Created with intention - one little card, two perfect strangers, and a heartfelt moment of human connection.
The Concept
This project began with a very simple idea. What if we could leave little pieces of love out in the world for complete strangers to find? A few words of encouragement left on an airport lounge seat. A friendly written reminder that you’re not alone, left on a café table or a message of hope waiting inside a library book, on a park bench, or on a walking trail in the woods. The concept really is as simple as that - leave beautiful, heartfelt messages in completely unexpected places, for others to find. There are no grand plans for where each one starts or ends up. It all comes down to the instinct and intuition of our global Love Brigade messengers who drop them wherever their hearts guide them and when they know it just “feels right to leave one here.". That is part of the magic!
The Purpose
We rarely know what another person is carrying day to day, and sometimes a few kind words arriving on a random and ordinary Tuesday afternoon can mean more to someone than we may ever know. We all know there needs to be more love and kindness expressed in the world, now more than ever. So, these little cards are on a mission, travelling the globe. They are being carried across cities, countries and continents by people who believe, as I do, that kindness matters! They are left with no expectation of anything in return, just trusting that the universe will somehow guide the right words to the right person who needs to hear them in that moment.
You have found yourself here, which probably means a card has found its way to you; so WELCOME to our Love and Kindness revolution, friend! We are so happy to have you here and a part of our global community!
Where in the world did your card find you?
As a recipient of a TWMTFY card, we would love for you to complete the form below. When you do, a little “heart” dropped pin will be placed on the map at the location where you found your message. We want to honour you and the connection you made to another kind, caring human being. Even if that connection was anonymous.
By doing this, you will also be helping us to track our ever-growing “live” world map so we can witness, in real time, where these little acts of kindness are making their ripples known across the globe. We would love for you to add your thoughts or a photograph of where you found it and what that meant to you when you did, so we can share it with our global community.
Each card has started its own journey in the hands of a stranger somewhere in the world, and now YOU are part of its story. Thank you for participating and sharing your kind heart with others.
We are sharing the love - literally!
Every heart on the map below represents someone who discovered one of these heartfelt little cards somewhere in the world. They were left with love by complete strangers and have travelled from one pair of hands to another, carrying simple and beautiful messages that love, kindness, and human connection STILL exist in the world.
Would you like to help these little cards find their way around the world?
Are you one of those magnificent humans who likes to “share the love”? Yes?! Well then, you’re in luck! You have the opportunity to join the “LOVE BRIGADE” and become a Global Messenger, too!
Pick up a pack of This Was Meant To Find You cards. Pop a few in your bag, your suitcase, your car or your coat pocket, and leave them wherever your heart tells you to. Maybe one ends up on a seat in the movie theatre of your hometown, and another travels halfway across the world in your suitcase to be dropped somewhere while you’re off on vacation.
Maybe you’re looking for a unique gift for a family member or friend who's heading somewhere new. You are gifting them the opportunity to help to keep the kindness moving through the world, too. You may never know who finds the cards you leave, or what was happening in their life when they found them, but that's part of what makes this so special. You're simply putting a little love out into the world and trusting it to find its way.
Purchase a pack for yourself, or as a gift one for someone you love, and become apart of our ever-growing,
kind-hearted community. Let's see how far we can send these little messages of love and kindness out in the world. ❤️
