#26Acts

in moments when i feel helpless, i turn to giving. so when i saw Ann Curry (goodness i adore her) come across my twitter feed talking about 26 acts of kindness to pay tribute to the 26 little babes and teachers that lost their lives last Friday, i knew this was something i wanted to do.

throughout the year i try to occasionally coffee elf (as Jacin says) while in the drive through, or take some groceries to someone i know needs them, or send a happy note to someone who is down because i can. the beautiful verse from Matthew 7:12, "so in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the law and the prophets," encourages me and motivates me to always treat my peers in a way i would want them to treat me.

to honor those children, i will be sharing what i can with whom i can. follow along with my heart as i participate in #26Acts on Twitter. just following the hashtag makes my heart a little warmer. maybe something i do will inspire you to join in. wouldn't it be wonderful if everyone in the world - or even everyone that reads this blog post, did something for someone else today?
