A Simple Daily Email

--by MsJava, posted Apr 10, 2007

I've been doing this for so many years it just now dawned on me that I guess it would qualify as an Act of Kindness.

Each morning when I get to work, the first thing I do is find a positive or thought provoking quote, type it up on e-mail and send it out to my "Thoughts to ponder . . ." e-mail group. Over the years the group changes; when some people leave the company I work for, they specifically ask if I will continue to send them the daily "Thoughts" which I am always happy to do. Sometimes I hear from a person about how a particular quote really touched them that day, sometimes someone will tell me they just don't get a good start to their day if they don't get to read that days "thought". Most of the time I don't hear anything but I still know it is making a positive difference in some lives and it doesn't cost a thing!

Today's thought was: "The only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve." --Albert Schweitzer
