18 Deeds



How far that little candle throws his beams!
So shines a good deed in a weary world.

- William Shakespeare

Hey Friend!
I was inspired to make a to do good list!The list will be finished for the new year. I thought this would be a good way of staying focused on being a good light for the few weeks we have left in the year! :)Some of these are easy as eating fudge, but some I think I am going to find a  bit hard to do. :) We shall see how this goes!!



My "DO GOOD" List 


1.Put someone else’s cart away at a store

2.Go a whole 3  days without saying “no” to an opportunity (unless it is bad, then I am allowed to say no haha!)
3.Do a chore that I hate for someone else
4.Write a letter of encouragement to someone that I haven’t spoken to in a year
5.Hold open doors at every opportunity
6.Volunteer as much as I can
7. Give a gift “just because”
8. Have a conversation with a stranger
9. Do something nice for the grandparents
10. Give extra  clothes to charity
11. Offer my time to someone else
12. Give away something (other than money0- money is cliche') to someone in need
13. Pick up litter as I walk one day
14. Pass on a book to someone
14. Call someone who needs encouragement
15. Make someone laugh who is having a bad day
16. Purpose to pray for one new person each day
17. Surprise others by already doing their responsibilities 
18. Do something cheesy for the boy


These 18 things must be done before January 1, 2014. I will document my findings as I "do good" in small ways. Try to make your own version of "doing good", I would love to hear about it! Here goes nothing! :)

  1. Summer, what a great idea. I think I'll make my own "do good" list....1) Don't pick on Mark for a week.....yeah, never mind. I'll just read your posts and see what you're doing. This is too hard. :-) Lol

  2. Thanks Mrs. Hathaway! :) You are so funny! Hahaha! Note I didn't say not to pick on anyone-- that is just WAY too much fun to miss out on! :D
