This is an experiment, inspired by a blog called 365 Acts of Love, in which a husband is secretly blogging about his daily acts of kindness, and his wife would be the lucky recipient of these kindnesses.
I thought the whole idea was so sweet, and I thought about forwarding the link to my husband, but that would be a little self-serving wouldn't it? And besides that, my husband is a really great guy, just not a blogger.
I try to be kind when the opportunity presents itself, but I admit that I don't always go out of my way to look for opportunities to be kind to someone who might not be directly in my line of vision. I have a lot of time on my hands and since kindness is one of the fruits of the spirit, I have decided to take on this daily being kind and blogging about it as my next project. Besides, blogging about patience or gentleness did not seem like it would be as interesting.
This blog is to keep me accountable. I am hoping by intentionally looking to do a daily act of kindness I will forget about myself and stop throwing myself little pity parties because we are still living in an area where I am less than thrilled to be living. We'll see if my theory holds up.
Tomorrow is day 1.
