Tell Me Something Good #119

Feels a little bit like this… it actually feels like “and just like this *poof* first 7 months of 2018 gone… but that would almost sound negative. And that’s of course not what this is supposed to be. So let’s kick off the week with a positive attitude.

It’s easy:

• Mention something that you consider being good in the comments

• Or write a post about it on your blog (please don’t forget the pingback if you do so I don’t miss out and also share the link to it in the comments below). Something good that happened to you recently, or something good you will experience in a little while, or something good you know will happen soon. Something that makes you feel good.

• Share this post and invite your followers as well.

You know it by now! We are not moving any further without a little happy dance. So shake those hips and whatever else you need to shake and dance with a lot of sass…

What do you mean you’re done? No, no, no… I know you have much more in you… So keep going. I promise it makes you feel good. Just make sure you don’t throw your hip out ;-)…

And when you are done, here is what I’d like to share with you today:

“Sometimes life can be a b**** and can throw us totally off. I find that when things like this happen people tend to keep it to themselves. Out of fear or out of pride, maybe out of fear of being judged. I had to deal with a situation today chasing a payment in my volunteer role. My gut feeling immediately was that the person most likely struggles to get the money to pay off the rest of what he had to pay. As we all live in a fairly wealthy area it’s usually not what people expect could be wrong. As we all know everyone carries their burden and sometimes things go wrong. So I sent them a message reminding them of the open account but also mentioned that I’m happy to have a chat to find a solution if there is an issue. I just finished talking to them and I struggled to not start crying listening to all that went wrong for them. It was honest and raw and ended in a promise to find a way to get the money to settle the account. What makes me happy though is, that someone has stepped up to cover for that family after I reached out to them and explained the situation. And I’m excited to call them in a little bit to let them know the good news…”

  3. Wonderful story and love the happy ending. Thanks for sharing. Our garden is flourishing. We just picked a meal’s worth of peas and green beans from it. The carrots and peppers and green onion are coming along nicely!
