It sat on a distinctive base with a lid shaped like a piece of bamboo, representing strength and flexibility. The ancient symbol on the seal represented good fortune and abundance. Each Wish Keeper sculpture is unique, emerging with distinct characteristics, just like each of us. The Wish Keeper on display was gleaming and colorful. We guests were filled with hope. One of us would win tonight!The anticipation kept us all engaged. I didn’t win, but I did win. We all did. We witnessed the gift of giving. Happiness was ours as we witnessed a gracious receiver and a generous giver.Kindness happens in all forms. We can practice kindness by graciously receiving large gifts, like a Wish Keeper, or small everyday gifts, like a compliment. We can give generously any time, a little or a lot, with our whole hearts.—BarriePostscript from MarciaThis issue of the Kindness Map newsletter wraps up the weekly publishing cadence that we’ve maintained for 42 weeks now.
