REMEMBER

REMEMBER

• The people who lost their lives to the terrorist  attack on the twin towers of the World Trade Center, an empty field in Pennsylvania and the Pentagon.

• The brave people, firefighters, policemen and civillians, that ran INTO the buildings to try to save others and lost their lives.

• The silence around airports and the empty skies in the days following the attacks.

• The horrible feeling of knowing that our country had been attacked and the fierce resolve that those who did this would not get away with it.

 

NEVER FORGET

Have You Done Your 1?

Have you done your 1Little Thing today?  Take the time to do something for someone else.  See how good it feels.

Say Thank You (2)

If someone wants to pick up the tab for lunch or do some other nice thing for you, just say Thank You.
They wouln't offer if they didn't want to do it and your "1 Little Thing" is to graciously accept the offering.

Water the Plants

Offer to water your neighbor's plants if they are going out of town.  It is relaxing for you and your neighbor  won't come home to dead plants.

Feed the Dog (or Cat)

If your neighbor has to go away for a few days, offer to feed and water his or her pet.  It doesn't take long  and it isn't dificult, but it will make your neighbor's trip much more relaxed knowing you are taking care of Rover or Fluffy.

Wish someone a Happy Independence Day.

Wish your friends a happy Independence Day! 

The United State of America is celebrating

235 years of Freedom

July 4, 2011.

Pick Up a Dozen Eggs

Next time you have to go to the grocery store, ask a neighbor if there is anything you can pick up for them.  What a treat to NOT have to run out for a quart of milk or a loaf of bread! Who knows, they may return the favor the next time they go to the store.

Do a Chore

Once in a while, without fanfare, do a chore that is normally performed by someone else in your household.  Imagine their delight to have that little bit of extra time to do something else or sit and have a cup of coffee.

They don't have to be YOUR dad -

just A dad.

Doing Just 1 Little Thing makes a difference.

This is an actual Facebook post by a friend:

"A woman just came up to me as she was leaving the restaurant and gave me a big hug and told me she bought my lunch for me because I did a nice thing for her once and then she left. I'm all choked up!"

Your kindness matters.
