I feel inspired to ask ppl to do at least one random act of kindness today. Whether it's telling the deli girl she's doing a great job or returning someone else's grocery cart from the parking lot. It can be anonymous and something you never take any credit for. Your doing it for the pure pleasure of the feeling of doing something kind for someone else. Thank you. TgrsPurr xo

These are things I do every day without even giving it any thought. There is nothing more rewarding than being kind to someone.

That's amazing and fantastic! You're a fabulous friend to be there in his type of desperate need. You must have a special bond with him. TgrsPurr. xo

This is a wonderful idea TGR. I try to be as kind as I can but sometimes I'm so self involved that I forget to tell people how appreciated they really are. I will make a concious effort to practice randoms acts of kindness today....and everyday.

4:45am, hmmmmmm, you're off the hook. Just the fact that you get up and out of bed is enough. LOL.

Thanx Sky, ya know, I did know that, but I refuse to use it, just as I very rarely use my delete key. Unless I'm fixing a typo, I don't take back what I say just as if I'm conversing and take my words back. Keeps it real for me. I don't mind advertising my insanity...helps me to fit in. LOL.

I recently read a quote to the effect that the only hope for the world lies in small acts of personal kindness - I kinda believe this and it's a theme I'm incorporating into the play I'm writing at the moment.

putting up this post is a lovely act of kindness.
I see kindness as one of most important acts we humans can do on this planet.
to be gentle and extend a hand to another.
I am most alive when I see this happen and love doing this for others.
your post has brightened my day
G.
