not so random act of kindness

on the christian music radio station, Mondays are Make-A-Difference Mondays...to me, this means making a difference in someone's life..big or small...or whatever..just as long as you make a positive impact.


and i never make a difference.

so i made a mental note last week to do it this monday.... tuesday morning came..and i realized that i didn't make a difference on monday. 

i was tired of not making a differerence..i was tired of me.   i get a cup of coffee from mcdonald's almost every work day...through the drive-thru.  i resolved to pay for a stranger's coffee.that was my plan - simple..do-able.

oh my gosh... why didn't anyone tell me that doing a random act of kindness would make me feel like a superhero?
i could feel my heart beating faster and time slowing down as i felt every moment leading up to my random act of kindness.  my senses were on high alert -- really weird but cool.

so not much too it.. i paid for the lady's coffee who was behind my car.  and i sped away.  yep-- FEELS SUPERHERO-ish.
