365 Days of Goodness

I wanted to share a blog with you from Alli D. Seigel, a young woman I met recently who wanted to do something purposeful with her life. I believe what she has done is something that all of us can emulate. She shows that being compassionate and charitable do not have to require lots of money, thought, time or energy. Alli has created   www.365DaysofGoodness.com, setting out to do 365 Good Deeds in 365 Days.  These Good Deeds range from big things (such as giving blood, starting a good-deed program in a second grade class, making a small donation on behalf of her parent’s anniversary that will provide drinking water for a whole village) to smaller things (giving a stranger a smile and some kind words on the subway) and everything in between. Says Alli: “I have had such an amazing time with my good deeds so far, with very positive feedback. I really do feel that I am living out my true life's purpose.” I encourage you to check out 365 Days of Goodness, and to think about what you can take away from her experience.
