The Mission




Well, 2012 brought us enough tragedy and heartache for a lifetime (and sadly that's still an understatement). I wasn't terribly shocked when 12/21 came and went and we were all still here. But by the time New Years rolled around I was still hoping for some change. So, my New Years Resolution: To complete at least one random act of kindness every day for a year. And so, I present to you a beam of hope from my little corner of the internet. Here is a running list of 365 random acts of kindness for 2013. Some of these may be a little ambitious but most of them are things you could easily do every day. This blog is not for any sort of attention or recognition and any hate or nay saying will not be tolerated. My simple hope is that this blog inspires other people to look at the world around them and help make it a better place for all of us.

Day Four

Okay. Day four. Here we go. I've been doing some spring cleaning while I'm home from school on winter break. How much junk can possibly fit in one closet? I'm sitting here with multiple trash bags of clothes I haven't worn in YEARS! Half of this stuff probably doesn't even fit me anymore.

So today I gathered it all up, BUT... now, I know what you're thinking, "Goodwill, Here I come!"NOPE.
Although donating these clothes to Goodwill would be an awesome idea I decided to skip the middle man and post these babies directly to craigslist. Free for the taking for anyone who has a real need for them. Hey, I still get rid of this stuff and someone else saves a few bucks on clothes for their kid. EVERYONE WINS TODAY! Isn't the internet great?
Okay So I might need to do some folding and consolidation before I send off the finished product. But hey, IT'S FREE!

And day 4 is down. Now I'm more than half way through the first week of good deed doing!

    Fabulous idea!! One of my co-workers and I were talking about this the other day. We love donating our old clothes, but would rather that they go to someone who NEEDS them....without having to pay for them first.. :)
