I'll give you a few examples of awesome kindness people have shown me lately: A few days ago, I went to get something repaired. The guy fixed what I had, a pretty easy job (though replacement parts were needed), and then I reached for my wallet. "No," he said, I didn't have to pay. He said, "It's my Christmas present to you," and then he joked that I should come to that store if I ever have to get windows. He smiled real big.
Another example: Today, I was at the Farmer's Market, Christmas edition, and I was trying to choose what I wanted to get. It was the same thing, but different colors. They were five dollars each and I had used up almost all but five dollars at the market. The lady said that I could have two for the price of one! I'm definitely going back there.
I love when you bubble up with happiness too, like when somebody gives you something awesome or they give you a great big hug just at the right time or when the good guy in the book comes just before the bad guy wins. When, right from the middle of you, you get a shiver and you just start smiling. Your belly feels tense because it's so full of happiness. That's how I feel around Christmas, and by the way people are acting, they feel that way too.
I'm liking this month.
