Kindness Part 2

Acts of kindness don’t need to be planned and are often spontaneous. Nor do they need to be complicated. For example, one thing I often do is return a cart to the store when I go shopping. If I see someone who is about to finish unloading their groceries into the car, I ask if they’d like me to return the cart. It’s a simple, easy thing to do. I’m surprised by how grateful people are and how surprised that someone would think to do that.


Today I met with a wonderful reader and her husband. They are on their honeymoon and as a surprise I joined them for lunch. To say Megan was surprised is an understatement. But as so often happens when I talk about kindness, I feel that I was the one blessed.

Cecelia Yes, kindness is so important. It's often that I forget this. Our lives are so busy that we need to take time out and think about blessing others with a kind deed.

Readsandeats That was so lovely. Kindness is something that people are forgetting in this world where everything must be done in a hurry.

A little kindness goes a long way. I push carts in left outside at Kohls.
Please come to Phoenix or Scottsdale & do a Booksigning
