Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Joy from Joining Helpothers.org


--by keriann, posted Jan 10, 2011

This is my first time so please bear with me. I am VERY new to all of this. I am still learning from HelpOthers.org.

I came across this site while doing research for a presentation I did on "Positive Attitude at Work and at Home". I was inspired by the stories I read and enjoyed reading the daily kindness stories. I have been doing this for about 4 months (reading stories but not "participating" in submitting any stories). I am not computer savy so have been a little weary about joining a "group". I don't facebook, twitter, or any of that stuff so you can understand my hesitation.

I finally got the courage to join and have not regretted that decision (in fact I know I should have sooner). The very first day I created a profile - I got two welcome messages and karma bucks. I was pleasantly surprised. I am truely inspired by all that have reached out to welcome me. I even had Aurelia explain to me Smiles and Karmabucks. Awesome!! I have felt all of your ripples!! :O)

I also won the$100 contest - again I was totally floored. I created my profile about 2 weeks ago and have received many blessing already!! I am so excited about what I will do with the $100. I want it to be awesome and create many and large ripples because I want everyone to SMILE and feel the blessings I have felt since joining the Smile Group.

EVERYONE - THANK YOU FOR THE SUPPORT, GUIDANCE AND ENCOURAGEMENT YOU HAVE SHOWN ME AND THE WORLD (THROUGH YOUR STORIES AND ACTIONS)! KEEP MAKING RIPPLES AND SMILES!! YOU ARE MY INSPIRATION!!
