Then I’d get all paranoid and be like “Oh, noooo… what if they DO let me? What if they just let me make a giant spectacle of acting like I taught the Dalai Lama how to love again… and THEN they say something?”

If this little tradition has ever lifted you up, helped you, got you through a hard week, or brightened a good one, I’m glad…
It has done the same for me.
If you are up for being my One Good Thing this one time, I would be profoundly grateful.

Every week for nine years, I’ve asked people to share One Good Thing from their lives.
This week, I need to ask people to consider being the One Good Thing in not just my week but maybe my entire year. My this year. My next year.
