RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS

I started blogging not quite a year ago, when my Mother was ill and I went and stayed with her and my Sister to help care for her.  We brought in Hospice so she could be at home with her family, pets and all that she loved at the end of her life.  Being away from my supplies and some long days and nights I started checking out some scrappers blogs and decided to jump right in and I started Pendra's Place... and doors opened all over the world for me, friendships blossomed and inspiration and creativity was never far from my fingertips.  Some 10 months later, the loss of my dear Mother and my health, have left me a little emotionally drained and at a low ebb in my life.  Today I decided it's long overdue and time to check in on some of my blogger friends and through RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS I was given a gift of smiles...

I go to visit my creative friend Susan and she shares on her blog of how she had been having a bit of a difficult time and sometime later finds in her mail a package, sent unannounced from a blogger friend Cely.  What a wonderful gift and what a huge impact a RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS can do for another person!

This made me smile as I head over to my talented friend Lisa and find that Susan has won her Blog Candy Giveaway (which was huge-normous and chosen quite RANDOMLY) and that really made me smile, because I see through another RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS fate reaching out to our good and deserving friend Susan again!

With a gi-normous smile on my face I head over to my sweet friend Pam (who I shamefully haven't visited in too long) to find that she is getting ready to celebrate her one year Blogaversary (way to go girl) and is having a goodie-generous giveaway (you have to go check it out) for her blog friends and there it is... Pam telling how her blogging friends Susan, Lisa and me, Pendra (just to name a few) have brought her such joy and comfort this year through her beautiful blog!  Well my gi-normous smile widened from ear to ear and a few tears ran down my cheeks as her words brought a RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS... to me! 

RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS bring such joy to the recipient and you may never know what a gift you give be it with a package, a card or even just a word!  But I do believe that when you share a RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS it is equally a gift to you and it eventually comes back full circle!   Go on... go share a RANDOM ACT OF KINDNESS today!
