when kindness comes

when kindness comes

A few days following a special project of love and kindness (dedicated to a dear soul) one of the generous hearts that coordinated the outpouring of love sent a little package to my door. Over so many miles she sent so much love.

Despite the fact that I have shared stories of this amazing thing they call the internet and all the true connections I have made because of it, I am still blown away and so grateful when it leaves me with something to hold in my hands. Or in the hands of my daughter (as seen here).

Share a little something that made you smile this week. Love and kindness welcome here.

Thank you Xanthe for such a kind gesture. It means the world to me.

    This made me smile this week, so fun. And this isn’t exactly full of love and kindness, but it made me smile and giggle a little (he was trying to take her beloved books, ANY book).

    I can smile at the fact that it was a little bit warmer yesterday and for being hopeful that Spring might be right around the corner…..

    Tracey, I’ve been away for a while, but I am so glad to be back! You are truly an inspiration. Your photos are magnificent, and I especially love kindness!

    Amid this cold, blustery nearly cruel winter, I am amazed and blessed by the sky’s artistry. (Sorry, I’ve not mastered hyperlinks in typepad on other’s blogs yet!!)

    I was so honored to have been asked to be a part of that project. I was then just as heartbroken when circumstances kept me from getting my image posted in time. I have this beautiful garland, made by me and my girls, that ‘m now going to package up and send to her. Its nice to know that it means as much to her to receive it as it did for me to make it! We’re all blessed to know each other for sure.

    All people deserve wealthy life time and loan or car loan can make it better. Just because freedom bases on money state.
