This blog is is attempt to fulfill a promise made to a stranger 25 years ago. Spotting a broken down car on the side of rural highway in Upstate New York, a man who could have very easily kept on driving stopped to help me. After an entire afternoon of getting me on my way he accepted only a thank you and a promise that I would help someone else along the way. It is time I fulfilled that promise. I am making a commitment to be kind to a stranger at least once a day for a year.

The Year of the Card
The end of the school year means a lot of things. In terms of acts of kindness, it means thank you notes to the teachers who have helped our kids be the best they can be. Each year I intend to write something for every teacher. Some years I have, and others I am just so grateful for the year to be over and the start of summer that I don't get around to it. Not this time though! My husband and I sat with the stack in between us and got it done tonight. A year of kindness is definitely the year of the card.
