Leave No Child Inside

Children are born with a sense of wonder and an affinity for Nature. Properly cultivated, these values can mature into ecological literacy, and eventually into sustainable patterns of living.

- Zenobia Barlow -

Leave No Child Inside

He seeks solutions people might otherwise never have imagined. Read on to learn more. { read more }

Why Giving Thanks In Hard Times Helps

Those with a grateful mindset tend to see the message in the mess. And even though life may knock them down, the grateful find reasons, if even small ones, to get up.

- Steve Maroboli -

Why Giving Thanks In Hard Times Helps

"It is vital to make a distinction between feeling grateful and being grateful. We don't have total control over our emotions. We cannot easily will ourselves to feel grateful, less depressed, or happy. Feelings follow from the way we look at the world, thoughts we have about the way things are, the way things should be, and the distance between these two points. But being grateful is a choice. A prevailing attitude that endures and is relatively immune to the gains and losses that flow in and out of our lives." When we approach all of life with a grateful mind, we'll find that our own gratitude provides the greatest light. Read more of this insightful article, on why gratitude, particularly during the hardest of times, is quite often the very thing we most need. { read more }

Be The Change

Take a moment to pause between reaction and action. Make a conscious effort today, in all circumstances, to embrace a state of gratitude.

The Man in the Red Bandana: A 9/11 Hero

Be courageous, care for others, a hero lives in you.

- Allison Crowther -

The Man in the Red Bandana: A 9/11 Hero

Welles Crowther began carrying a red bandana when he was 6 years old. It soon became his signature, and a link between father (his dad carried a blue one) and son. When Welles turned 16, he signed up as a junior firefighter at the local fire station -- Empire Hook and Ladder Co. No. 1. On September 11, 2001, Welles was working as an equities trader on the 104th floor of the South Tower of the World Trade Center. When disaster struck, he took off his figurative equities trader "hat" and put on his fireman's hardhat. He navigated the stairs of the building 3 times to lead people down to safety before he was killed when the tower collapsed. Welles saved the lives of 12 people that day who will always remember the man in the red bandana. This moving video is a tribute to his spirit and the legacy of love and courage he left behind. { read more }

Dad & Daughter: The Unstoppable Kindness Duo

The accumulation of small, optimistic acts produces quality in our culture and in your life. Our culture resonates in tense times to individual acts of grace.

- Jennifer James -

Dad & Daughter: The Unstoppable Kindness Duo

"People talk about how if they win the lottery they can help so many people. You hear that all the time. But if you start actually doing small acts... it really is a great way to see the human connection and how little things really do matter -- even if it's just a compliment or a smile. It doesn't necessarily have to do with money." Geoff Nedry is a long-time kindness agent who early on found an unexpected partner in spreading smiles: His 5-year-old daughter Rachel. Read on to learn about this charming duo's powerful adventures in giving -- and the profound transformative effect it had on their family and beyond. { read more }
