Today I treated my youngest to Jamba Juice and some school shopping at Goodwill. Now most people wouldn't think that was an act of kindness... However, most people have no idea how much I loathe shopping. LOL.

Snap! The past few days have been a whirl wind! Thursday my act of kindness involved helping my daughter paint her kitchen and put her house back together after the chaos.

Today I witnessed great kindness. My son was the perfect example of kindness this morning as he comforted his over whelmed sister. He hugged her and reassured her that she was normal and that she could handle the trials she dealing with. He assured her that he was there to help.

Lifting the Poor Wayfaring Men of Grief
As we were leaving a Walmart parking lot yesterday, I rolled down my car window and gave a dollar to a homeless man on the corner. He grabbed my hand and genuinely thanked me for the dollar, but asked if I had anything for a headache. It was so hot outside.

Today I went to the local farmer's market. I LOVE the farmer's market! It is so friendly and the stuff there is fresh and awesome!

Yesterday I worked on my garage disaster... but at a slow pace. I decided it is okay to give myself permission to take it easy. The last few weeks of hustle and bustle took it out of me. The simple joys of life are always missed when you are in a hurry. It's been nice… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 268 and 269
