Do Something Good
Good Afternoon Readers,
Today, several things have come to my attention. The first happened at the gas station this morning. I held the door open for a gentleman who was right behind me. He was older and it was polite. He thanked me and said “thanks, you’ve done your good deed for the day.”
This got me thinking. Was that going to be my only good deed for the day? I really had hoped that it wouldn’t. I then remembered that I had a pledge packet I needed to open when I went home.
After getting some work done I decided to pop into the writer’s forum that I frequent… Accentuate Writers Forum is a great place where I have learned amazing things from those striving to become published authors and those who are already published.
A fellow writer by the name of Opher Ganel had posted a link promoting an event. Clicking through I found that Opher and his son were going to be participating in the Seagull Century 100 mile bike ride as part of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Team in Training. The bike ride will take place October 10, 2009 and Team Ganel’s goal before the ride is to raise $4,000. I made a donation to help out Team Ganel in meeting their goals.
My donation was a small $10 but I am hoping that you, my fellow readers, will be willing to match that donation and get Team Ganel to their goal way before the date of the bike ride.
Visit Team Ganel to make and match the donation I made today.
It’s not even 1pm here and I feel like I have done a few good things today. What kind of good things will you be doing today?
Eternally,
Linda St.Cyr
