What kindness can do

“Your kindness was like a bright ray of sunshine and made me forget my suffering for some time.”

No, I did not bake the muffins pictured above, but I was deeply touched by the writings of the woman who did. Her current blog post begins with the sentence: You can do everything “right” and things can still go horribly wrong. Lord knows I’ve lived that truth.

I’ve posted things by Rachel Macy Stafford before. Her Facebook page is titled Hands Free Revolution; she wrote the book Hands Free Mama, and I especially love her tagline: Letting Go… to Grasp What Really Matters.

“What really matters…” That’s something worth thinking about, isn’t it?
