The Kindness of Strangers

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.

Thanks For Volunteering

Day 256

I was thankful today for the person ringing for the Salvation Army Kettle campaign outside the grocery store when I ran in for some eggs. Both for the the volunteer work she was doing, for a great cause, and for the opportunity she provided so I could put a dollar in to count as my kind act for the day.
