John Feal founded the FeelGood Foundation, which helps 9/11 responders as they continue to deal with the aftereffects of dealing with injuries and toxins.
We must, he reminds us, make the most of our lives. Every day we get out of bed offers us a new opportunity.
Good deeds, moreover, are infectious. In a recent radio interview Feal recounted how, when he’s in line to buy coffee, he often pays for the drink of whoever’s behind him.
His philosophy: when we’re kind, we can’t help but be kind to others.
The kindness of others has helped me to be a better person. How about you?

Happiness Between Tails speaks to and from the heart. It connects lovers — of pets, authors, books — and of my still-unreleased novels, “Flamenco + the Sitting Cat” and “Tango + the Sitting Cat.” The stories are my love letters to all who fear they're too odd, too damaged, too old, too whatever to find happiness.

Love this.. Kindness is everything.. It takes little effort to be courteous and kind, a smile, and helping hand, costs nothing, yet means such a lot to those receiving..
Wishing you a joyous week..

What a wonderful post – kindness really does multiply in my mind. You never know when a kind word might make a huge difference to a person, and it is so easy to do.

Me too, fortunately. When the thought of an unkindness threatens to darken my day, I try to remember that most people are mostly good 😀
