How many times have you been cheered by a small act of kindness?
I can think of many:
 |
| The friend who drove out to our house to take pictures of it when it snowed in 2004 (when it rarely snows in our area), and we were out of town and missed it. |
 |
| The child who hugged me, when I was most unlovely, and made me feel so wretched . . . and so loved at the same time. |
 |
| The many friends and acquaintances who have blessed our hearts and home with their gifts of food, cards, phone calls, prayers, well wishes, money, and time when we've experienced major life changes. |
 |
| The strangers who smile at me . . . just because. |
 |
| Those folks who have done something unselfish and kind for me and/or someone in our family - and we never even knew it. |
Gestures of kindness don't have to make the history books to make them worthwhile. Think of everyone for whom you've done a favor, and know that they would agree.
 |
| The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the grandest intention. - Oscar Wilde |
