Do Something Nice

When communities come together, amazing things can happen. And when one man and his family find they may lose their way of life, it takes a community to help save the day!

The quote in this episode is from Coretta Scott King: "the greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members."

Restaurants are a great place to bring people together for a meal. But one man's restaurant did more than bring people together, aimed to help others. But when the pandemic hit, it was his business that needed the help.

The quote in this episode is from Mother Teresa: "At the end of life, we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done. We will be judged by I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat, I was naked and you clothed me. I was homeless, and you took me in."

Each year we have an event called Giving Tuesday, and in this episode, I'd like to share one of my most favorite non-profit organizations called The Children's Cabinet.

Signs are a way of getting a message across. We see them everywhere, but sometimes it's nice to see a reminder to be kind. And sometimes a few signs can turn into something big. This episode explains how that can happen!

The quote in this episode is from Samson Raphael Hirsch: "If someone is too tired to give you a smile, leave one of your own because no one needs a smile as much as those who have none to give."

There's a lot going on and so much to soak in. The year is almost over and Jeff wanted to take a moment to reflect and share his thoughts.

The quote in this episode is from Holly Branson: "Just imagine how different the world could be if we all spoke to everyone with respect and kindness."

Love letters tell a strong story, and when you come across a good love story, how could you not want to read it? Listen in to find out what that means!

The quote in this episode is from Mary Schmich: "Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank statements."

One way to show someone how you care is by building them something special. It's even more special when it's something they need and you go out of your way to do it for them. This episode shares an example of that!

The quote in this episode is from Jim Rohn: "Whatever good things we build end up building us."

The pond of kindness may be still until you toss a pebble into it. Then the acts of kindness you proceed to introduce into the pond can leave some pretty impressive ripples that spread out further than you think. Listen in to find out what that means.

The quote in this episode is from Randy Pausch: "Sometimes you can't pay it back, so you just have to pay it forward."
