YOU Give me Hope.

I came across a very inspiring website the other day
www.givesmehope.org

Basically the website publishes stories that are very uplifting and reminds us how much impact a small act of kindness can have.

I challenge you readers to look at the website and then commit yourself to doing one small selfless act per day. It can be as easy as hugging a friend or family for no reason or smiling at a stranger passing you on the street. Because you never know what an impact that little gesture will make!

A post from Gives Me Hope:
Five years ago, I witnessed an overweight girl being harassed. A group of "popular girls" had pulled down her pants while we were leaving school. The girl grabbed her pants and ran away crying. Our school's star quarterback chased after her to comfort her. 

I just came back from their wedding. GMH.







Today, our history teacher was telling us about a man who was famous for transporting Jews to safety during the Holocaust.

A student in the class said "That's my grandfather." 

Our teacher began to cry, and said "He saved my entire family." 

Beautiful coincidences GMH
