 This week's inspiration comes from the tranquil waters of Kathryn Albertson Park in Boise, Idaho. This urban sanctuary perfectly frames the perfect Thanksgiving-week message.
 Standing on that quiet dock at Duff Pond in Middleton Idaho, everything slowed down for a moment. Just me, the water, and the thoughts moving through my mind.
Living simply has taught me that calm isn’t found, it’s chosen.  Many years ago, I was sitting at the table with my young son, caught up in one of those simple-but-memorable conversations parents tend to carry with them. As we talked, he quietly gathered a few pennies and began balancing them on their edges. Patiently, carefully, completely focused.
 This week’s post is a little different.
I wanted to take a moment to focus on something that often gets overlooked, the incredible kindness that exists all across America, if we only slow down enough to notice it. |
