Welcome to this week’s edition of feel good Friday. I think that if we constantly focus on the bad news, that’s all we believe happens. I’d rather feed what I want to grow, so I feed the good news (the flowers) and neglect the bad news (the weeds).

Kindness isn’t as rare as the news and Facebook would have us think. There’s kindness everywhere, and good people waiting to be kind. The problem is that when we focus on all the awful stuff, people forget that kindness will mostly be returned with kindness. Not always. The world isn’t fair, and the there are people out there who will hurt you, usually because they’ve been hurt and don’t know how to deal with kindness. But you can choose to be part of the problem or part of the solution. Which will you choose today?
