TODAY I WILL
Today I will do something like laugh,
Go see a touching movie with a lonely friend,
Call a friend, even though it has been five months or longer
since they've called me,
Smile at one who appears discouraged,
Avoid waiting to be asked to help but take the initiative,
Open the door for the person behind me,
Leave the remaining change in a soda machine's tray when I put
a dollar in to get a drink for 55 cents (who knows? -- 25 cents
could enable someone to make that last minute call to make a wrong
a wonderful right again),
Do a house hold task my spouse generally would do,
Go to a senior citizen's home and chat with someone there (if
I live long enough, I will one day anxiously anticipate a kind
listening ear),
Say a prayer for someone I cannot tolerate (win-win
proposition),
Tactfully interrupt a co-worker who starts gossiping and
change the subject,
Refuse to allow miserable and negative people to affect my
thinking,
Tell a family member or friend that I love them when I'm
finished reading this.
