I got to witness the coolest thing last Christmas. I was in line at one of the Big Box stores
(I know, I know...). A young mother was ahead of me in line. Her basket was full of food, gifts, Christmas supplies
and three kids. There was an older gentleman ahead of her - buying some gardening supplies. After
he'd paid for his stuff and moved on, the young woman prepared to pay for her huge collection of stuff. That's
when the sales clerk held up a gift card and said, "Did you know that man? He just left this card for you
- it has $250 on it." We were all stunned. We all shed a few tears. We all smiled
from our hearts all the way into our eyes.
It was a sacred wOw moment. That man changed Christmas for not only that young woman and her family, but for
me, the sales clerk and I bet everyone we told. wOw.
Yep, there is so much tough stuff going on these days. There
is also a lot of KINDNESS happening, too. So I'm choosing to focus on the kindness rather than the fear.
I'm choosing to Spring Forward. And you can too. If you want to join me in springing kindness forward,
