Tell me a story

Dozens of times I've said that I would love to hear from you, and it's true.  I'll bet you have some amazing stories.  Share some.  Tell us your kindest memories.  Come on.  Tell me a story

stay hydrated

The human body contains more than 60 percent water and maintaining that balance can be a challenge. Becoming overheated or dehydrated can lead to heat stroke and possibly death. Drink plenty of fluids, especially water and make it part of your daily routine. Today is National Hydration Day. Be kind to your body and use this day to remind yourself of the importance of hydration!

Monday Monday

So many people dislike Mondays because it is often the return to work after two days off (or for some, the return to school classes), but why should that be a bad thing?  If we work at something we enjoy, every single day can be positive.  Be kind to the calendar and be kind to yourself and of course be kind to others.  Monday can be just as wonderful as any day!

Happy Sunday

Happy Sunday everyone and welcome to the beginning of another week of kindness.  Any suggestions on who we can make this a kinder world?  I'm always interested in new ideas!

teaching

Teaching others to do things can be very kind and helpful! Teaching someone to read, for example, is a gift that will last forever. Perhaps tutoring a student, spending more time with your own kids or grandkids, offering to read at a children's library, or volunteering as a helper at an after-school program. Senior citizens often can use a hand learning things too, especially new technology.  A helping hand and the sharing of our knowledge and experience is always a kind thing.

from Coretta Scott King

On this Juneteenth I am reminded of these words from Coretta Scott King, "Struggle is a never-ending process. Freedom is never really won. You earn it and win it in every generation."

too late

I have probably shared this quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson before, but it is an important one.  He said "You cannot do kindness too soon, for you never know how soon it will be too late."
