Here & there, but not everyone! But I do make sure I say thank you to those kind enough to hold a door open for someone with a baby in arm & a toddler in hand. I think that's one thing that doesn't get said enough is THANK YOU!

I do! I so talk to strangers, all the time! I try to make people smile. I have been known to get entire buses full of stuffy people to laugh. And acts of kindness are a lifestyle choice for me. Life takes on a different look when you are looking for the next adventurous way to help someone new! This week, I got to help a gal on crutches, told her Id been there, told her a quick story, and saw other people around smile too. A good outlook is infectious!

You remind me of a movie I really liked, planes trains and automobiles. The character, John Candy, got the entire bus to sing, meet the Flintstones!
