It's amazing how good doing something nice for someone else
can make you feel.
I have a coworker who has been going through a very rough patch with her husband & has been very depressed this week. One the way to work this morning I stopped & picked up a bouquet of spring flowers & a "thinking of you" card to leave at her desk.
She just stopped by my office to tell me I had really brighten up her week. What she does not know is it really brightened up my week as well.

It is more blessed to give than to receive...

4. I have been having a pretty crappy week this week myself.
Doing something positive & happy was actually kinda selfish in a way.

3. Good karma can be immediate without even looking for it.
