Random Acts of Kindness...

Inspired by sorrow, a friend of mine started a company called Angel Quest, ...a challenge for consumers to perform random acts of kindness. The art below represents one of the beautiful angels illustrated for Angel Quest.
As a people, we need to or try to do this daily...as simple as holding a door for someone, calling an elderly relative just to say hi, to lending a hand in the local soup kitchen or giving a gift to a complete stranger...whatever it is it should be from you with no return expectations.

I am challenging my fellow Squackers (myself included) to perform a random act of kindness and report back to me by Easter Sunday...lets start the ball rolling so we can pass it forward.......( I know it's not like we don't already do it...let's just publish it:)

Count me in, Jules!
I've heard kindness starts at home....hmm....
Random acts of kindness towards one's husband......
Is there such a thing?

And to all of you out there - our 1000's & 1000's of readers -
What are your Random Acts of Kindness?
Let us know!

(a day or two later) Does not killing my husband count as a random act of kindness? Please tell me it does! I'm pretty PO'ed at him right now and could happily throttle him....random act....random act....kindness, Ann....think kindness....let him live!
I'm squackatated, TSabb

I have just returned from a vacation that was both wonderful and terrible for one of our fellow travelers.
Birthday Girl J came down with pneumonia.
You haven't lived until you spend a few days in Mexican hospital.
I was reminded hourly on the
importance of even the smallest of gestures,
and will continue to be kind.
In a random sort of way.
