It was so good that so many helped those stranded. I think most Americans would react the same--I have great faith in our country as whole of being made up of helpful people. I saw in in NYC and I see it here in Colorado. Glad you were OK in the storm! Loved this story about the generous winner--she has a good heart!Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-215012239224279787.post-48882484600157897862014-02-09T16:05:52.141-05:002014-02-09T16:05:52.141-05:00I love hearing your perspective on the storm.

It warms my heart when people act with kindness as they did in Atlanta. Oh, if only such deeds could carry on.

I would love to imagine a world where kindness came first all the time...wouldn't that be wonderful.

Cheryl, I am also not surprised you took someone into your home. I wish we could all care about each other like that everyday. Human nature is confusing sometimes. Love what the little girl did!

She makes some pretty awful comments on her site about elderly people and how they don't pay their fair share for her children to go to school. It stunned us when we came across this controversy with the young against the old. It's disgraceful. She in my opinion is doing all this to set herself up to run of office in the county. Anybody who does not respect the older generation does not need to put on a big show.....<br />And third....I was amazed by all the kindness during the storm...I sat up all night reading all the comments on Facebook and why am I not surprised that you took in someone with her child...You are a wonderful caring person....The next day I was equally shocked when I read comments from people telling people from the North to go back where they came from....and if you don't like it here then why did you come.....lot's and lot's of negative and hateful remarks....very surprised after the out pouring of kindness to then see all this hate.....and that's all I have to say on the subject :) Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00074713188145597455noreply@blogger.com
