Here's a great thought for the day that I found...
"We must not, in trying to think about how we can make a big difference, ignore the small daily differences we can make which, over time, add up to big differences that we often cannot foresee."
– Marian Wright Edelman
So don't forget to...
... hold the door open
...say thank you
...make eye contact and smile at total strangers
...write a thank you note or a note of encouragement
...pick up the phone and call the friend that's been on your heart
...give a couple extra bucks to the homeless man on the corner
...tip well
...hug someone
...ask the cashier at the counter how their day is, and genuinely be interested in their response
...let someone go first
...go the extra mile, even though you don't have to
To you or I these may be small gestures...but to someone else, it very well could just turn a bad day into a good one. :)

New to your blog. What a simple truth. Im not in the place to do things for others that I desire to do, but I make an effort to be nice to people every day. It just makes sense, and it feels right.
