300 to go... Yesterday was a great day!  It was busy!  It was long.  However, as I looked for the bright side of everything, I learned that I was having a fun day.  I hope I was dragging others along for the ride. I started my day by writing my blog and billing out some… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 65

#bethelight – Day 64

I enjoyed my face-to face interactions yesterday.  It is so much easier to truly communicate! When I was a kid I loved to sneak my parents' copy of Reader's Digest (it's a magazine that came in the mail - a definition for all those too young to remember magazines and even "mail") so that I… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 64

#bethelight – Day 63

Yesterday I did my best to serve, to hug the sad, and to lift the burdens of others.  By the end of the day I was pretty tired. Today I continue. I heard about a "Just Say Hello" campaign that Oprah championed a few years back.  The idea was to use Skype to reach out… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 63

#bethelight – Day 60

I tried hard to dish out heart felt compliments all day yesterday.  It is amazing.  People smile.  Moods changes.  Lights glow from faces.  All from little compliments! Today I prepped for my week of meals.  Today I spread the light with healthy food.  I am working on lightening the load of food prep during the… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 60

Yesterday we had fun making memories making cookies and helping with our friend, JenniLynn's wedding open house. Today is a busy day with a couple dental appointments and I promised my girls I'd take them to a movie. Today I will practice kindness by finding opportunities to give compliments. It costs nothing, takes no time,… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 59

Today, while I am still relaxing from a busy school schedule, I thought of a way to spread light... "Tis the season to spend time with people I love! Today we are making memories... making memories spending time together... making memories making cookies for a friends wedding reception... making memories putting away Christmas decorations... Before… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 58

#bethelight – Day 57

Today I focused on mindfulness.  It is clear that intentional mindfulness is a huge part of kindness.  When we are mindful, we are aware of how our actions effect others.  This awareness leads to greater kindness in general. There is peace. Join me! #bethelight

#bethelight – Day 56

Now the #LIGHTtheWORLD is all done I need to come up with my own #bethelight ideas and activities.  I am still working on my 365 days of kindness.  The past 25 days made it a lot easier as someone else came up the ideas. I usually don't like to go to the store the day… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 56
