Kindness

I only went to school half a day today. I had to take my daughter to the doctor as she has what everyone has... a very bad sore throat.Then after school I tutored a child who is in my class who is not at that magic level of I where he needs to be! Upon arriving home my college daughter wanted to watch a movie together. The Title was Evan Almighty. I laughed at several parts, but in the end it has a great message that we all should do "one act of kindness at a time". I wrote it down quickly on a piece of paper as not to forget it. Then I reflected back on my day. Had I done some kind deeds to others? Yes. Had others done some kind deeds toward me? Yes.Rex and I went to the cottage to work on plumbing. The neighbors came over to tell us about their day and I looked at text messages friends had sent me. I am blessed with so many friends who ground me with kindness. I will try very hard to pass it on! Remember do a good deed for those who surround you and for those who you just meet.

  1. Wow Tammy--you are so busy with so much on your plate, and yet you take time to reflect on such a powerful thought. Simple to do, hard to remember to do deliberately.
    Thank you so much for reminding me to take a moment each day to consider whether I've performed at least "one act of kindness" and to reflect on acts of kindness others have performed in my own life.

  2. Yeah, my friend, you posted. I love the reflection too. You have bits that weave a tapestry of your daily life. Sewn in is the act of kindness. Thank you for that reminder. How that act really fills our buckets. So glad you posted!! MaryHelen
