I do not know why the tragedy at Newtown, Ct. on December 14, 2012 impacted me so much. But it has. Today, I heard about the movement to do acts of kindness in honor and memory of the deceased and their survivors in Newtown http://abcnews.go.com/US/video/newtown-overwhelmed-acts-kindness-18007621. There are multiple "acts of kindness" movements, including on Twitter, and some that are international in scope.
This is a horrible tragedy. But if it moves people to do acts of kindness, then it shows the power of faith, humanity and the value of goodwill to all mankind.
So, I am challenged to do an act or acts of kindness. I donate to certain charities, and I could add an additional gift.
But, I want to do something different, something more interactive, something that reaches out to someone.
Perhaps, in the next few days, I will find or make an opportunity to do an act of kindness.
