I went to pick up something for my sister. I felt good.

I was traveling with an acquaintance who was struggling because they were unable to sleep during an overnight flight, so I offered them my travel pillow to use for the duration of our long layover so they could get some rest.

I offered to lift somebody’s heavy suitcase for them while I was traveling. I helped them lift it so that they did not hurt themselves.

As I was doing yard work, I noticed that my neighbor\'s trash bins were still in the street. Trash pickup day was 2 days ago. The bins were in the way of someone who was cutting grass near the sidewalk. I wheeled the bins back into my neighbor\'s yard. I felt a bit strange, like I was trespassing on their property.

Today, I bought some vegetables from an old grandma farmer from the street. I feel warm.

Today, I tried a drop-in Pilates class for the first time and started talking to a woman who was also there. Surprisingly, we discovered that we went to the same school and work in the same field! It felt good to make a connection in the community.

I’m on a trip visiting different places in the next week or so. I’m trying to be mindful of those who live here and keep where I visit clean by picking up trash when I can.

I try to greet my neighbors with a smile whenever I see them. Some people don’t respond, but most return the greeting. I feel good when we exchange greetings.

I greeted the bus driver to express my gratitude for getting me home safely.

I have made a monthly donation to Fistuala Foundation for over 10 years since I watched the documentary, A Walk to Beautiful, to improve the quality of women's lives.
