Monday Motivation
Remember there’s no such thing as a small
act of kindness. Every act creates
a ripple with no logical end."
– Scott Adams
Yesterday I was reminded of Blog Cataloque"s, Bloggers unite Randon Acts of Kindness Day that I participated in last year and developed a new habit. I am passionate about the beach and keeping it clean.
I have continued on with my randon act of kindness each day we go to the beach. Monday’s we usally go with a plastic bag as there is always more cans, paper cups, and often half full water bottles on the beach.
Sunday was Clean up Australia Day, so one might expect that there would be less litter around.
Admittedly the ASP world surfing (You can watch Taj Burrow) tour is on at Snapper Rocks and the beach was wall to wall people. There are even bins on the beach,
On Monday we had forgotten the bag for collecting rubbish, but were able to fill two bogs we found on the sand, with litter. I still find it amazing that people don’t respect such a beautiful environment.
So now I am off to the beach for our daily walk and swim, I wonder how much litter we will find today?
I am jealous you get to go on a daily beach walk and swim. I used to live in Florida on the beach and I did a ton of surfing, even though I was never good enough to be in a pro tour. it was a lifestyle I will always miss and try to get back to. I am in Dallas, TX now and there is nothing but corporations and flat land out here. Anyways, I saw your point about litter and cleaning up the environment and wanted to say how important it is because I saw first hand how nasty Daytona Beach has gotten because of people being dirty and it stinks. Thanks
What a wonderful way to put into action Random Acts of Kindness. I wish I was close to a beach but I’m here in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado with snow melting on the ground but just as beautiful. If we take the time and look around we can find ways to act like you are doing and make our world a better place.
I enjoyed your post. Thank you for sharing this with us and the reminder to do our part. I liked the picture you included and Scott Adams’ quote.
Suzie – I’m back again and I just wanted to let you know your post inspired me to write my own post and I linked your post to it. It’s called Spreading Kindness
Thank you for your writing. I like your audios and pictures too.
Hi Pat,
My pleasure I love it when others are inspired
Namaste
Suzie
Its a nice way to put into action random acts of kindness. I enjoyed your post. Thank you very much for sharing this with us and the reminder to do our part.
Thank you Suzie for staying committed to the beach’s purity. I am astounded at the actions of people who assume that someone else will clean up after them, or who believe that throwing litter into the sea deals is an alternative.
