Beautiful camellia! And nice, kind people: “One of [the professionals outside whose workplace you were holding signs] said over and over how much she appreciated seeing people do something instead of just complaining. We listened because I think she needed someone to hear her.” I think you’re right about that as well as doing the right thing. 🙂

Finding Joy in Everyday Compliments - Rick Ollie

I've never said it publicly until now. I'm that way because I know what it's like to not have seen it a big part of my life...

Everybody has #ToughDays. Some days are tougher than others. If you have any spoons to spare though, why not spend it #BeingKind. You never know when it can turn someone's whole day, week, or even month around. Life's tough enough, let's not add to the negative. I hope everyone has a better day today. If you're having a rough time of it, know that I'm thinking of you right now and sending all the light, love, and strength. ❤️

Everything is so damned ugly.
Here is the good.

She spent a month trying to help stray dog whose head was stuck in a jug

“He got hungry enough that he had to figure out how to eat with that container on, and he did,” said Teri Goodnight, who eventually trapped the dog.

@spocko @willmckinley aw, you're making me blush. We all need the occasional reminder that #BeingKind requires #BeingMindful

#BeingKindfulMeansBeingMindful is a bit of a mouthful, eh? I'm not very good at inventing witty #hashtags

Little life snippet

I felt like bringing some surprise end-of-year-snacks for our team today (my first year in that #job) - it's been a tough year for all of us & we rarely meet in person.

Apparently this wasn't done before....suddenly our team leader made sure to get several drinks for all and we got to "party undisturbed" for one hour with lots of talking, ranting and laughing... actually team building.

Never underestimate the positive impact of little things you do & just #BeingKind ☺️
