I'm telling you.  my life is on high speed and I can't find the time to write things down.  I have been looking for opportunities to give and/or receive kindness.  Friday was a long day.  I went to the eye doctor.  I have missed having my glasses.  Then I worked all day.  It was the… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 207, 208 and 209

I haven't been very active in the past couple of days.  I have gone into the school, but I get the kids to move things around that I would normally do.  This is a great act of kindness toward me.  I still have a whopper of a headache since Sunday.  Sometimes a great kindness is… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 206 and 207

Today my husband was kind enough to plant the tomatoes I intended to plant.  However, after my face plant yesterday I was not up for working in the garden.  In the late morning we went on a little drive.  Our first stop was at a little trail for a short hike he wanted to do. … Continue reading #bethelight – Day 205

I tell my students that "can't" is against my religion.  It isn't really against my religion.  However, I do feel that "can't" should be removed from everyone's vocabulary.  Seriously.  What is really holding you back?  Fear? Reluctance? Pride?  Stop talking yourself out of taking risks.  Life will open up!  Do something nice for someone without… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 203

I missed yesterday because I was so busy.  I think my act of kindness was to simply do my job.  Today I painted faces at a yearbook party at school and I played with my grand-kids so that their parents could go to the movies.  On top of that, I am hosting a scary movie… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 201-202

Today I was really looking for that surprise act of kindness I could perform. The thing is, when your days are rather routine with work and stuff, it is often hard to find the opportunities to do meaningful acts of kindness. Then, at the end of the day, I remembered that my co-worker/friend had put… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 200

Today I was nearly overwhelmed with the need of light and kindness in the world. Seriously! There are so many unhappy people in the world. I am learning for myself that little acts of kindness go a long way. However, the person that is impacted the most by random acts of kindness is me! If… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 199

Today I had a lovely drive to the airport with baby from an uddermudder.  We talked all the way.  I realized, well remembered, that sometimes all a person needs is a listening ear.  I don't need to give advice.  I just need to listen... and then give a little advice.  (cheesy grin).  Love you Sis!

Holy Cow!  My days get away from me! Friday was a normal weekday... get up, get Lilli to seminary, go for a walk, get ready for school, teach a voice lesson or two, help in the theatre classes, mail a box... Oh mail a box.  Friday my act of kindness was to mail a box… Continue reading #bethelight – Days 195, 196 and 197

Today was an unplanned act of kindness.  I came out a local business and saw a man digging through the trash.  He asked for money.  i didn't have any.  I brushed him off and walked to my car.  As I got in, I noticed the blue berries I had packed for lunch.  A little voice… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 194
