The 5 o'clock national news upsets me. Reporters search out the worst, most nerve-racking events that take place every day. As screwed up as the people of our planet may be, there's much more kindness. But, we won't hear about that, cuz it's the sensationalism that gives them ratings and brings in the bucks.
Yesterday my boyfriend and I were sitting here when our doorbell rang. Sharon and Jean had been picking strawberries at a local strawberry farm and stopped by to share them with us. The berries were large, red and so shiny that it looked like they'd been polished. And, sweet? Goodness gracious, yes, juicy and luscious.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow said it best...........
Kind hearts are the gardens,
Kind thoughts are the roots,
Kind words are the flowers,
Kind deeds are the fruits.
