Be Kind

sometimes it's the little things you do for people that mean the most. Remember when that news story came out about people "paying it forward" at Starbucks and everyone paid for the person behind them? Because someone decided to start the chain? Doing nice things for people doesn't have to be for holidays or special occasions. It can be for no reason at all. Yesterday I was heading to lunch and a co-worker mentioned he wanted pecan pie with vanilla ice cream. This guy is constantly craving odd things, generally burritos or something Mexican, but today it was pie. As I was out running errands, I decided I'd look for a piece of pecan pie somewhere. I found a tiny individual box of pie and I even bought him a tiny container of ice cream. Back at work, he was SO busy that I think
He was in shock when I delivered it over to his desk he forgot how stressed he was and just say back and enjoyed the treat. All of this because I spent $2.24 on pie and ice cream for someone, out of the blue, on a day he really needed a pick-me-up.

I've always said that when bad things keep happening in my life I must need to change something. I generally do something nice for someone else in hopes of changing my karma..

Let's hope it comes back around soon, as I'm laying on the living room floor at 1:41ambecause my little one kicked me off the couch after falling asleep after a nightmare... I'll be sore when I get up....

This is just a reminder- do nice things for people. Be kind. It'll make you feel better.
