ShiFTing Priorities

Our local Sunday paper profiled two women last weekend. They are from central MN and have started a world wide effort to do something nice for somebody every day. They have named it “ShiFT the World.” (Spread happiness it Feels Tremendous)

They have done small things like written letters to favorite aunts and uncles. The gals have done many other things like making a scrapbook for a friend’s son’s funeral and buying diapers for a harried mother. Each act of kindness they feel makes the world a happier place.

This was supposed to be a challenge for them for a month but they have decided to extend it throughout the year. They are blogging about it at http://www.shifttheworldwithjessandgrace.wordpress.com Their stories are inspiring and fun to read.

I’m going to join the ShiFT! How hard can it be to do something good for someone else each day. It may take some effort but what fun it will be to see the results! Care to join me and all the other “ShiFTers” out there?
