See the Good, Be the Good, Share the Good was created by
This morning, I saw a homeless man share his breakfast another homeless man. It looked like a sandwich and that it was all he had to eat. Yet, despite what may probably be the only thing he'll eat today, he shared it. I was so touched, I was moved to tears, seeing the Good in humanity, even at the bottom.
Much of what has happened in the Temple as of late reflects much of what we see happening in the world around us. So much uncertainty, anger, misunderstanding. It's heart breaking.
But there is beauty out there too. I saw this today and wanted to tell you all about it. Then I thought about our very active Rants thread, and a Grateful Thread, both necessary tools so people have a place to vent and be thankful. I couldn't find a thread to express the good we all experience everyday. So I created one.
Just like those threads, share anything good that you see, that you read, or that's happening in your lives. Help turn the tide of negativity and mistrust and show how much good there is in the world we all share. See the Good, Be the Good, Share the Good.

This is wonderful I want to share as well
I my childhood best friend came in to my store today surprised me he came from Chicago. He always, enjoys showing up unexpected I don't know why but, it made me very happy I hugged him and we got lunch.
He had his little girls with him and they both consider me Uncle even though we're not related. Children are some of the most precious things in the world. Remy (Nickname) 3, every time she sees me she's always shakes her hands up and down as a sign of "Hold me" so I picked her up put her on my lap while we talked. Children, pick up on emotion very easily it's sometimes remarkable. My sister recently, moved away and isn't talking to me or my wife atm she suffers from mental illness and I love her very much. My friend, Nick is his name picked up the subject and we talked and I was trying really hard not to start crying in front of him and lo and behold Remy turns looks at me and says, "Don't cry Uncles I love you!" That got me so bad! she wrapped her arms around my neck and hugged me I cried like a baby...children are so beautiful.
