February "Love One Another" Recap

Well, February did not go quite as I had hoped it would. The goal was for each of us to do one act of love each day.

I'm sorry to say that we didn't make that goal. We should have had 112 hearts posted by the end of the month, but we only had about 67 up there.

Acts of Love included things like:

• I let someone go in front of me at an intersection.
• I helped a blind peer walk to the restroom.
• I stood up for a friend who was being teased.
• I was extra nice to someone who doesn't like me.
• I made a car package for a woman who started chemo.
• I left an anonymous note of encouragement on someone's desk.

I called this an epic fail because we fell so short of our goal, but my husband thought we should call this a "pretty good first try." We haven't done anything like this before, and I guess he's right.

Plus, we'll have a couple more opportunities to do acts of kindness throughout the year. My plans have us rotating between finding blessings, giving thanks, finding beauty, and doing acts of kindness.
