90 Days of Kindness – Day 89

Today marks the next to last day in the kindness challenge.  One question I keep asking myself is was this a successful challenge?  I thought about this a lot over the past few days.  I believe my answer is that if a single person participated in the challenge and completed at least one kind deed, […]

One kind action leads to another. Good […]

90 Days of Kindness – Day 72

This morning I did something fun for a change.  After working out, my eye caught the basketball gym.  The same thing happened yesterday but I ignored it.  This time though, I went in and picked up a basketball.  I played for a good 20 minutes.  In the process, I won 3 game 7’s of the […]
