“The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry.” Robert Burns

This world is full of people carrying all sorts of things we can’t see. This is the place for small, decent acts that make someone’s day a little lighter. Maybe even a little brighter.
A smile, a joke…pick up the tab for lunch, let someone cut in front of you in traffic…any sort of helping hand. Maybe hold a door open for someone…or toss a simple kind word. That will matter more than we know. Do something nice today, then tell us about it.
