Secret Agent (Wo)Man

No act of kindness no matter how small is ever wasted.  Aesop

I now have that song running through my head.  I'm sorry are you asking what song?!  Haven't you heard this?  Okay now that we've got that out of the way... :)

Today wraps up a week at YLSC of Gratitude and Secret Gratitude Agents.  It has been such a fun week - full of secrets and creativity and covert ops.  :)  Being the Front Desk means my co-worker and I get to participate in a lot of the fun of the covert ops and we get to see a lot of what people are getting as their secret agent shows them some gratitude.  It has been a huge hit - I'm campaigning for it to be an annual thing!
This week I have seen some "small" acts of kindness take people and their spirits a long way.  We all need a show of kindness and gratitude.  It's my soapbox - *you* may think it is "small" and not worth doing/saying/etc but small to you may be HUGE to someone else.  And no small thing is ever wasted.  They all add up together to make maximum impact.  I've watched it happen this week.  Everyone has been boosted by people getting loved on and shown some appreciation - it hasn't been limited to just the recipient.  Somehow, someway everyone benefits when acts of kindness and gratitude are  being done.

Critics don't even buy the "at least they are doing something" statement.  However, you have to start somewhere. And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play. Read a Road Map Day One of the many reasons I would stink at The Amazing Race is because I never did learn how to read a road map well.  I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by to pa
