The “Ripple Effect”...

     Whatever you call it... act of kindness... a day brightener...
finding “flecks of gold” sparkling in our lives as Jessi Woken suggested... or it just feels good!

     And it gives us an idea of something to do! 

    Share the good things you notice.   

Like these:

     Great kid! 

The car parked on County 24 Blvd seemed to be in a strange place. Then I noticed a guy walking in the ditch... picking up papers. Then I saw the neighbor’s mailbox was missing!
By the time I drove up to the young fellow he was at the neighbor’s front door.

 But no one was home. 

So he explained to me what had happened... he had clipped the mailbox with his car and would bring a new mailbox. 

Of course I got his name and even took a picture with my phone! 

What a great kid to be so responsible and caring! 

And I told him that we probably all have done something like this!

     She knows but isn’t telling! 

Lil Pagel tells how pleased she has been to find fresh squash secretly left on her doorstep. But, she smiled, “I know who it is!” (I don’t think she’s sharing this information!) 

An Irish Blessing... 

Pat LeVesque’s women’s clothing store was nearing closing time when three gals came in. They had just finished practicing singing with a group. They are happy gals and all had just been to Ireland so they decided to sing an Irish Blessing on the owner of the store.

Then they noticed that one clerk was missing... working in another room... and so they all went there and sang it for her too!
And we can enjoy the thoughts it expresses too

May the road rise up to meet you. 

May the wind be always at your back. 

May the sun shine warm upon your face; 

the rains fall soft upon your fields

and until we meet again,

may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
