“Once you begin to acknowledge random acts of kindness - both the ones you have received and the ones you have given - you can no longer believe that what you do does not matter.”~ Dawn Markova
“It is the little things.” We say it a lot, but do we live it? What I find more than anything is we discount the little things that we do or we don’t even do them because we feel they are too insignificant to matter. Yet, I remember when the “Random Acts of Kindness” book first came out years ago. I remember the tears that I felt stinging my eyes from the “feeling good” I had reading the stories. The book was filled with such little things...and yet they touched my heart profoundly. I have a friend who is going through an incredibly challenging time right now. She called me excitedly because the gentleman in the car in front of her in a drive-thru had paid her dinner bill. Her story made my heart surge and I felt inspired to write something on my Facebook page that received 8 comments of gratitude. Who knows what those 8 people then went on to do...hmmm...all from on gentleman who wanted to express a small act of kindness. I wonder what inspired him to his act of kindness...
So, what have you put off doing because it felt too insignificant? Need to make a phone call to someone? Write a thank you card? Send flowers? Smile at someone? Let us know...let us be inspired by YOU!
Here is a good one...starts out a bit negative, but oh does it get better! Enjoy!
