kindnesses

“As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and hostility to evaporate.” – Albert Schweitzer

Last week I wrote about how a server giving me a free bowl of oatmeal, and a fellow passenger lifting my suitcase for me, inspired me to look around for ways in which I can practice random acts of kindness….and I challenged you all to do the same, to use Labor Day weekend as an opportunity to practice small, random labors of love.

As promised, I wanted to use today to hear your stories!  Please use the comment section to share what kindnesses you were able to practice, and how it impacted you and the person to whom you were kind.

(Also, I hope we don’t stop here!  Let’s continue to live our lives with eyes wide open, always looking for opportunities to be kind, to bring hope and healing to those we encounter in this beautiful, broken world.)
