Sometimes, when you need it the most… and expect it the least…. a groovy little thing happens and it reminds you of the kindness all around you. It reminds you that you are not the sum of your fears and insecurities.
Today, my new friend Tom, sent me a message that changed my day. I’m sure he doesn’t even know how much it meant, or how much I appreciated it. Thank you, Tom.

Just doing one of those random of acts of kindness that the world needs more of.
I saw a quote from Plato the other day: “Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.” Realized it’s true. And while I can’t help everyone fight their battle, it doesn’t take much time or effort to give a word of encouragement or praise that might give someone a little something that might make that battle easier to fight, or at least just momentarily take their mind of the struggle. Hope I accomplished that. Sounds like I did.
I haven’t been groovy since the 60′s… so I’m honored, and touched. Thank you!
