Wonderful day 1/2/13

Even though, the wonderful thing did not happen to me, it doesn't make it any less wonderful.

Today, I am in awe of the generosity of people to strangers all over the U.S.

My awe started with a news story of a man who gave up his home & moved back in with his mother. He moved back home to give a homeless family a hand up. He didn't need all the space, and a family living in different shelters ( because of the age and sex of one of the children) now live together. The family will be able to live there rent free for a year.  As a child, he remembered how is father helped out individuals by sharing the spare room in the family home. This man took that generous legacy and kicked it up!

I continued to be awed by the generosity of people while watching the local news tonight. A local individual has put a rare signed copy of a Stephen King book up for auction to help buy heat for local families who can not afford to heat their homes. This man, remains anonymous, but he will be a true hero to many families in Hancock County I'm sure.

Each day this year will be filled with something ponderous, of this I am positive.
