I tend to keep an "eye out" on my surroundings - where I am, who is around me, what others are doing, etc. This can lead to some interesting observations and at times, helpful ones. I see people drop things a lot and let them know. Sometimes they drop currency and I let them know. I see people who could benefit from a door held open for them, from a hand carrying something, or picking up something they have dropped. I see people who may benefit from directions to a location (sometimes I'm even helpful giving directions!) and people who look like they could use a "hello" or a smile - and I share one with them. I like how cashiers, wait staff, and others in customer service ask me about my day. I like to ask them how their day is in return. I hope all of these actions are taken as random acts of kindness. That is the intention of my actions. In return, my day is better and I hope other's days are better because of the actions too.
My two cents on the world, people, perspectives, interactions, injustice, and social justice. I'm working through my questions and curiosities of where we are and how we might get out of this mucky mess and achieve a glowing, loving, peaceful community. My Two Cents welcomes your two cents as we collectively reach for interconnection.
About Me
- Penny Jo Rosenthal
- I am the Mother of two great adult children, Elizabeth 27 years, and Scott 24 years. On September 4, 2010 I gained a new son-in-law in the family - Josh. I look forward to the new adventures this brings our family! I find it difficult to be a human "being" versus a human "doing" and strive to find a peace and serenity.
