Meet my daughter, Ellie. She is vibrant, artistic and loves a pun. We stand with her and her trans family, especially those most marginalized already by our racist & transphobic systems. #WeWontBeErased #TransIsBeautiful pic.twitter.com/Tzo0Y02oxL

Our class did a paper plate activity to show their appreciation for one another. Our class motto is: see the good in others, say good things about others and do good to others.

Let's make our world a better/loving place, pass it on! pic.twitter.com/aWHfwO2Bfp
the true heroes in our culture aren't Columbus or Jefferson but the inner-city teachers, the peaceful protestors, the old woman raising her two grandkids, the artist who has never stopped dreaming of a better world.

These men noticed a lady paying for her gas with pennies and decided to give her some money. Little did they know, she had just lost her husband and was having a rough time. We can all make a difference. pic.twitter.com/j2Pu7erH80

I wanted to know who was behind the Mets Are A Good Team Committee Super PAC. I found a 15-year-old boy, who wants to stop political corruption + called from his free period before a chem test. https://t.co/7e8OsxlWEY

It might not seem like a good thing that Todd Bol, the creator and founder of Little Free Library, died recently. But what he left behind is amazing and could conceivably last forever.
I am feeling fortunate to have spent a recent afternoon with Todd Bol, who dreamed up the Little Free Library.

Todd Bol, who has died at 62, built a little book exchange in his front yard in 2009; there are now 75,000 Little Free Libraries around the world, from subway stops to cornfields to Siberia. https://t.co/NWUxXGWgpu

Thank you, Chris, for your kind anecdotes about whatever light we can find in this world, against the backdrop of so much darkness, even in your home state of Pennsylvania.
ReplyDeleteTo amplify on Tolkien's words, "Some believe it is only great power that can hold evil in check, but that is not what I have found. It is the small everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keep the darkness at bay. Small acts of kindness and love."
