Be somebody's fan!

I met a woman yesterday (she needed a wedding photographer) and after my pitch, she was enthusiastic. She gave me good signals. Today, when she came back with her contract & check, she was still excited to have met me. Genuinely. As I sit here now, still on a little bit of a high from the acceptance, it dawned on me how badly we all need somebody to adore us every once in awhile. It felt great. I kinda let her go on and on.

It's not really that hard to do... make somebody's day that is. Walmart has 50% off flowers right inside the door almost every day. I got two dozen last week for only $4. I split them 4 ways and gave 4 friends a half dozen roses. I guarentee that your child's teacher would appreciate flowers today. Remeber postal mail? Every now and then I get a card in the mail. The kind that somebody licked. www.coolpeoplecare.org still remains on of my favorite websites. It's full of easy ways to be somebody's fan. Pay for the car behind you in the drive through, invite your widow neighbor over for dinner, take a bag of dog food to the pound, leave a thank you note for your mailcarrier, pick up your child early from school and go to chuck e cheese for no reason. Random Acts of Kindess... it makes my day when it happens to me, and it makes me feel more alive when I do it for others.
