"No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted." -Aesop- This week's challenge is to make a stranger's day better each day. So simple yet so meaningful. The simplest gesture can turn someone's day around. This is the first of the weekly challenges that is outside of 'me'....it is about someone else. Do we benefit from making someone's day brighter? Oh yes! See how much better YOU feel after you: help someone with a door, compliment her necklace, truly listen with a smile after saying 'how are you today?', hand a homeless man a meal, bring your wife flowers, make cookies for an unsuspecting recipient... Hope you are joining me this week. Let me know how it is going and what new insights you may be finding. I'll check back in this weekend :) ... It's the weekend... Having the extra 'push' in the back of my head to be extra kind to a stranger turned into trying to see how many people I could give an extra hello or compliment to each day. I loved it, and it was especially great to have the push to focus on something outside of myself. Yes, I feel good when I help someone, but it is not about me, it's about them. By helping others, we end up helping ourselves, too. Win-win.
