What have I done?

The nights are long and lonely, which have become my favorite time of the day to reflect upon my words, actions and deeds from the previous day's events. I find myself returning back to the question during my of quite time to "what have I done" today that I need to repent of or "what have I done" that has had a positive effect on someone's life.

It is so easy to brush off a simple action or deed that I could have done that may have brighten someone's life. What is not easy is that act of kindness by going out of my way to help out others. It seems to be that I always have good intentions but the action of getting up and doing something of value is the hardest of all things.

I recently watched the movie "Julie Julia" and I loved the blog that Julie did about blogging her 500 meals in 365 days. I want to try something similar but instead of cooking I want to try and do something nice, (by word or deed) for the people I share my life with daily. I want to blog about my experience on a daily basis to record the events that come about by just a conscious decision of being kind.
