I don’t know how many of you listen to the Bobby Bones Show (syndicated through Nashville on 96.5 every morning) but if you do you know that they celebrate a week they call Joy Week. It started a year or so ago when one of the cohost’s moms was diagnosed with cancer. Through all of the hardship and pain, the mom continued to spread joy wherever she went. They call it “pimpin’ joy” and you can read more about it here. The week that they’ve chosen to celebrate it just happens to be next week.
During the week of March 2-6 we would like to take the time to honor the life of our friend Sherry through the giving of random acts of kindness. We believe that even through hurting it is important to spread joy and make a positive impact on our community, family, and friends. Each student will be bringing home a small card to pass along when they do a random act of kindness.
If you would like to participate you can submit a photo or short story of your random act to hillchoosesjoy@gmail.com. These will be turned into a book or a display in the coming weeks.
If you're looking for an idea for a random act of kindness to do with your family, here is a list you could choose from. You could also use your own idea! Click here to see a larger version.
Enjoy spreading joy this coming week!
