Ripples From The Smile Deck

--by nycesweetp, posted Feb 10, 2011

I picked a card from the Smile Deck today - it was a spade. The spades are in the category “For Our World”. I picked the card (4 of spades) which says:

“send a thank you note to a person or business helping the world”.

I have recently had someone come in to my life who has inspired me tremendously. She is very kind. She reaches out to children all over the world who are disabled or terminally ill. She wants to bring a little bit of sunshine into their lives so she sends them lovely goodie bags for their birthdays and on other special occasions. I feel blessed to know her and decided to use this opportunity to thank her.

I went to the store and bought a lovely ‘Thank You’ card and wrote a kind note inside. I also placed a Smile Card in the envelope so that she knows she has been tagged. I mailed it out today and it makes me smile to imagine her smiling when she gets it. I hope it brightens her day :-)

You are the rock god spoke about in the bible, and upon this rock the gate of hades shall not prevail. May you find peace in the knowledge that what you are doing today, will secure the freedoms for our children and their children. You are my rock! God bless you and those just like you serving in harms way.
