Feel Good Friday...The Good Life

Feel Good Friday…The Good Life

In this short film we come face to face with our ideas about money and accomplishment. And how are we going to define what success really is. It really isn’t the number of years in your life; it is the amount of life in your years. So what about 2012? How much life are you planning on putting in this year. Or will you be reading this story again 365 days from now wondering where the year went and what you did with all of it?

Feel Good Friday...I'm Being Santa

Feel Good Friday…I’m Being Santa

Ahh…Santa Claus…the mythical fat man flying around delivering toys and gifts throughout the world…Santa maybe the best example of random acts of kindness out there. Think about it…you don’t know him; he drops in from the sky, puts some gifts out for you and leaves without a word. Pretty cool. Acts of kindness are you being Santa to someone else. As small children we believe in Santa, or rather we believe in the myth of Santa…red coat, reindeer, elves that whole schtick. Then we stop believing in the myth. BUT what if Santa as a concept is real and working today? I read a story recently of people paying off other people’s layaways at Kmart stores. Pretty cool and very Santa-like.
Do acts of kindness…Be Santa…see the video here:

Feel Good Friday...Change for a Dollar

Feel Good Friday…Change for a Dollar

This extremely poignant and award winning short film explores what an impact a small act can have on a life. We can “pay it forward” and never know what will become of our act. Maybe that change you just gave away changed somebody’s life. Maybe that kind word shifted an attitude that in turn went on to the next person who really needed some change. Often the change we need isn’t money it’s human connection and compassion and understanding.
“If you think you are too small to have an impact, try going to sleep with a mosquito in the room.”
There is no kindness too small that it doesn’t count. They all count. Do it because its kind.

Feel Good Friday...A Caring Teacher

Feel Good Friday…Caring Teachers

For those of you who are teachers…this video (an advertisement, really) should remind you that you have no idea of the impact you may have on someone’s life. The reach of your influence goes far beyond the work you do in a class room. For those of you who are not teachers…think back to the teachers who really expected more of you than you did yourself. And what are you doing about those expectations? Didn’t you have bigger dreams?
