the year of kindness

 
what I love about this new year is that Im already crossing some resolutions off my list and its only been a week. haha. One of the resolutions I would like to focus more on, is helping & being kind to others (which includes animals). I mean, in any way that I can. I already started some acts of kindness (with the help of Kate Gabrielle!) She had also tweeted about donating to your favorite charity. I mean, I pay for Netflix and Hulu every month, why not this? So I started writing down some charities and organizations and found that WWF was a charity im most fond of. I have a heavy heart for Wild Life animals. But not only do they protect animals but also the planet. Ive decided to become a monthly donor! im pretty thrilled and I get to keep up with all the news on their twitter page. Im also thinking about adopting an animal in a couple weeks. yay! a fact about me: I actually wanted to become a Wild Life Biologist before majoring in Animation :)


to keep up with this resolution, ive decided to do one today! I went to Safeway today to get lunch and as I was passing the card aisle, I stopped. reading the list of Random Acts of Kindness (thanks to Kate, again!), I remembered one about sending a "note of appreciation"! I have so many people to thank and I thought this was a great way of letting them know how much I appreciate them. I bought a stack of cards and will be writing and mailing them out on Thursday! :)

one of my favorite bible scriptures: "and as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise" - Luke 6:31. I always try to treat people the way I would like to be treated. that's something some people forget. heck, sometimes I do to! but its always been pinned in the back of head since I was little. i simply smile and say a sweet "thank you" or "hello" when i come across rude people and its not to get under their skin but maybe they are having a bad day and just need that little reminder! They may need that simple kindness to get through their day :)

i hope this encourages you all!
hope you have a pleasant Tuesday!
