Compassion comes in all shapes and sizes, never to big or too small.Â
Each and every act matters!
Thanks to Yvonne Spence and Lizzi Rogers for spearheading this great idea.
1000 Voices of Compassion
This event will be 1000 bloggers, at least, writing posts about compassion, kindness, support, caring for others, non-judgement, care for the environment etc, and ALL PUBLISH ON THE SAME DAY (Feb 20, 2015) to flood the Blogosphere with GOOD!
Use the hashtag #1000Speak to promote this event across social media.
I will be participating and just maybe posting something my 10-year-old daughter will be writing also. Join the Facebook group and get your write on!
To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.   ~Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 – 1882) American Essayist & Poet
I love that Emerson quote – so fitting for this initiative! I’m looking forward to reading your post in February! Don’t forget to like the blog #1000Speak for Compassion and have your daughter email her post to
10*******@gm***.com
to be published there!

Thank you! This is such a great event and I am honored to play a small role!
That’s how I feel, Mark…this thing has grown SO big now! (YAY!)
Thanks for sharing this Mark. It’s a wonderful idea. I’ve joined the group. It will be a great effect.
The more merrier! It is a great idea to spread compassion and kindness around the world, even if only for a moment. But the ripples, well who knows?
