And you are so right about how online we are all part of this giving, inspiring, loving community. The real world is the same too, but it's just not always so easy to make connections as adults, or find people who share the same interests.AG Ambroulthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15047802869910512121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32235836.post-25211904210111098402010-09-29T12:04:13.371-07:002010-09-29T12:04:13.371-07:00I love this Dana!

It is truly amazing how you can turn things around with just a bit of kindness. There was a women at the hospital who had just given birth and was just having everything go wrong. Because of it, she became very difficult to take care of. I was warned about this before entering her room and went in anyway. I was kind to her and gave her permission to be upset. Then I helped her feed her baby despite her continued agry tone. Finally she said to me, "I am going to apologize to you, but it's only because you are being so freaking nice." We laughed and she was kind to everyone who entered her room after that. <br /><br />Have you heard of 29gifts.org? A women struggling with MS was told to give 1 gift per day for 29 days and her symptoms decreased and really great things started happening to her. It's an amazing story --there is a book about it. I think you would like it.Reginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14273644516005784423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32235836.post-22818110165145452482010-09-25T18:31:38.924-07:002010-09-25T18:31:38.924-07:00Dearest sweet dana, this is a really beautiful ide...Dearest sweet dana, this is a really beautiful idea and what a wonderful way to spread around love and kindness.

You are a precious soul.
