Some of them have four feet and fur, others come in human disguise. I've learned not to question and just accept these wonderful encounters for what they are - a brush with Spirit, Source, God, the universe, whatever name we may have for it.<br /><br />As for kindness being its own reward - absolutely! When I think of random acts of kindness, I always think of that movie, Pay It Forward. I always thought it was such a lovely concept, and I try to remember to practice it every day.Ingrid Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01874816179648089811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582932888892465523.post-90493424246283400282009-12-15T11:06:01.927-05:002009-12-15T11:06:01.927-05:00Thank you Kathleen for the kind words.

Bishop's Wife (1947) is a good movie, but then I enjoy any movie Cary Grant is in.Mason Canyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10935307400882363560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582932888892465523.post-23855735281794700912009-12-15T09:55:46.815-05:002009-12-15T09:55:46.815-05:00I'd be happy just to have Cary Grant in my liv...I'd be happy just to have Cary Grant in my living room! But an angel would be good, too...<br /><br />I love that movie (the original only, of course).<br /><br />I would love to say I wouldn't want proof, but I am afraid I would probably ask questions. Just a couple, and then I would take it. That's the truth.<br /><br />You are deserving! Yay for Elizabeth!<br /><br />Michele<br /><a href="http://southerncitymysteries.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">SouthernCityMysteries</a>JournoMichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11170364981958685438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582932888892465523.post-79326494700136421962009-12-15T08:24:54.939-05:002009-12-15T08:24:54.939-05:00Elizabeth, I'd have to say I've gotten a l...Elizabeth, I'd have to say I've gotten a lot out of my support for reading, books and writers. I've enjoyed numerous places, people and things through books that I would not have had I not read. So the books and reading has enriched my life. Sometimes the books just made me laugh when I needed it. As for the writers, I've developed a lot of new and interesting friendships that I've come to cherish, such as yours.<br /><br />Margot, thank you for your kind words. I try to make the blog interesting. I want it to be different each day, but the same in some ways. Hope that makes sense. I enjoy your blog. It's always interesting to see how others feel about books they read. I'm not sure about the 'more,' but I hope to keep blogging each day for a long while.<br /><br />Teresa, thank you for your kind words too. I agree with you completely, kindness does have its rewards and they are the internal kind. I enjoy your blog each day. You cause me to reflect and I need that sometimes.

I just love writing...and the support and encouragement I get from other writers AND the book lovers who tirelessly promote reading.<br /><br />Journalists are definitely writers! That's what I told myself during my short journalism career...knowing I hoped to write novels later.<br /><br />You're kind too--what are you getting out of your support for reading, books, and writers?
