The Pond of Life

What did you do today?

Today I was a supportive friend. I actively listened.

I was a loving Mom. I explained, praised and loved.

I was a productive therapist. I planned ahead.

In my simple life, I made small positive ripples in others' lives.

It was, mostly, like every other day.



Ask my husband what he did today.

He saved a 17 month old's life.

He doesn't do this every day.

Some days he helps people who are simply lonely or lazy or scared or old.

And he never knows what his day will be like.

But he is always ready to be the guy...

the guy who saves a life.

Today he made a big splash.
