The old retired kindergarten principal, one of the most jovial people I've ever met, lives not far from me. It's been a while since I visited him, so I brought over a bottle of the apple cider I make every winter. He was delighted to see me, and tonight I'll be having dinner with him and his wife, son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren.
ONE GOOD DEED: Give a bottle of homemade apple cider to the retired kindergarten principle.
What's going on here?
I've made a commitment: to do one good deed per day. Large or small, it doesn't matter. Self-sacrificing or not, extraordinary or mundane, it doesn't matter. Just one thing every day, that's all.
The more I do good, the better I feel about myself. Truly, to benefit others is to benefit yourself. I hope this journal may inspire others who also yearn to do good. So join me on this journey, if you will, and think about the difference you can make in your own life.
