Inspiration & Information
Kindness Ripples
Today, I practiced kindness by continuing something my family began in the middle of heartbreak. After losing my son, Matt, we chose to carry his spirit forward through kindness. What started as a small tribute became a nonprofit, Matt’s Kindness Ripples On, and eventually grew into a book. I’m excited (and a little nervous!) to share that my book, Kindness Heroes, releases April 21, 2026. It tells true stories of ordinary people whose small acts created powerful ripple effects in their communities. In the spirit of this beautiful community, I’d love to gift a free early digital copy of the ebook to the first 20 people who respond here, in exchange for an honest review. Reviews matter so much for authors — especially independent ones. They help books become visible and most important allow stories of hope to reach farther than I could ever spread them alone. If this sounds meaningful to you, reach out to me at MattsKindnessRipplesOn@gmail.com. Thank you for being part of a place that keeps kindness alive. 💛...Tech Support Request
Today, I responded to a Next Door request for some tech support for a local rural business where I am about to relocate in 11 days. It was a courageous feat to follow my intuition and curiosity with what appealed to me about the positive nature of celebrating people's good qualities. The response seemed appreciative like I was a possible answer to prayer and that felt good to know. , This person is a Mama-like person to my mid 50's & I could feel the kind intentions (and empathetically feel some hidden feelings, the kind that people sometimes prefer to hide or select what others know.) I am grateful for this person's offer to help unload my station wagon on moving day and treat me to lunch. I gave gratitude in the phone call (and by email with a picture of flowers) because I sensed the possible hearing challenge on the phone. ...Love All Feed All
Today I saw some people walking on the road carrying flags. When I asked, I came to know that during the Holi festival they were walking all the way to Dakor Temple for pilgrimage. They were on their way there. I thought we should arrange something for them. It wasn’t much, but we decided to provide water bottles, snacks, and tea. We went to Nadiad and set up a small camp there. We prepared tea and snacks and arranged drinking water. Then, we served water, tea, and snacks to all the pilgrims who were passing by. We also spent some joyful time with them and enjoyed the beautiful spirit of the festival....Helping A Couple
While I was going on the road, I noticed a couple pushing their bullet motorcycle. I stopped and asked, “What happened, brother?” He said, “The petrol is over. Yesterday I gave my bullet to a friend. He returned it at night but didn’t refill the petrol. He didn’t even tell me. Now I’m stuck and we are pushing it. What can we do?” I said, “Don’t worry, I am here.” I told them to sit on the bullet and I pushed it with my bike from behind. Slowly, I helped them reach the petrol pump safely. They were very thankful and gave me their heartfelt blessings....Comment Wall

Parents need to fill a child's bucket of self-esteem so high that the rest of the world can't poke enough holes to drain it dry. Alvin Price

Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. ~Elizabeth Stone

The same boiling water that hardens the egg will soften the carrot. So it is with children. Everything depends on the individual’s particular reaction to stressful circumstances. ~ Hide or Seek
