In deference to those who have genuine and honest problems with list threads, I've decided to do something a little different.
Starting today, I'm going to pick a person or two who have caught my attention in whatever good way and I'm going to point them out in their very own thread. I'm going to try to do this every couple of days, though I might get on a roll and do it every day.
It may only be a little small thing. It may be a big thing. That's not important. What it is is a genuine appreciation about something delightful I've seen in someone else.
It's my way of praising the good things I see in someone right out in the open, where everyone can see it and maybe even chime in. It's a thread to celebrate that person for that day, or however long the love-fest continues.
It's my opinion that there's not nearly enough kindness in the world. We get our ass kicked, each one of us, on a daily basis. There's no real reason we can't find a little kindness here. It might just make a shitty day a little more bearable.
Saccarine-sappy sweet? You bet. Hokey as hell? Absolutely. Do I care? Nah.
