Why 37days?

On May 5th it was the birthday of a man named Mukhtar, a bus-driver in Copenhagen. This May on that date, he had no idea that a large group of people had planned to celebrate him.

I burst into tears when the video got to 2:05, watching his face register what was happening. And beyond.

Be mindful of others. Delight someone. In any language.

(Thanks to Glad Doggett for pointing me to this video)

    I’m crying with you, Patti. What a beautiful expression of what’s good in us all, if we allow ourselves to give it voice.

    How awesome! I can’t think of a better start to the day! Thank you!

    Im going to use this video in my memory for when others believe I do too much for them, and try to discount the joy I bring. It is only their perception. I am only doing what makes my soul smile = delight others! Thank you Patti!
