Reach out

I can’t help but mention that in the last month or so, I’ve read or heard quite a bit about the following:

If you have the thought to do something good or say something kind, do it. 

I was reading Ernie Johnson Jr.’s Memoir, Unscripted, and he had a passage on page 154 that I failed to completely remember of write down (ha!), but his basic gist was to reach out and say something kind to someone if you have an inkling to do it.  

How many times do we have those moments? I get them a lot and act on about 25 percent of them. And that’s an improvement! I used to do it about 5 percent of the time. My fear of what people would think was stopping me. But Ernie says people will always appreciate it, period. And I believe the guy.
