Acts Of Kindness For Henry

I have been following this blog for a little while now.  The woman who writes the blog is Katie Allison Granju.  She writes beautifully and has a wonderful sense of humor.  She has also been hit with the most tragic of events this year, the death of her 18 year old son Henry.  If you have a moment, take the time to read her blog, but today, go out and spread some kindness in remembrance of Henry.  Yes, he was a drug addict and yes, it did lead to him getting into a bad situation which would ultimately lead to his death, but he was also an 18 year old kid.  A kid who had gotten in too deep and couldn't find his way out.  He was also a son and a brother who is missed deeply.  despite his addiction, he was a wonderful young man and today he would have been 19.  So, to honor his memory, his family is asking that everyone go out and spread some kindness in the name of Henry Granju.  Nothing wrong with being nice right?  If you do, please join the facebook group Acts Of Kindness For Henry, and let the family know what you did int heir sons name.  They don't have him here to celebrate with and I know it would bring some sort of peace and happiness to know that the memory of their son still lives on.  And why stop today?  Being kind is something we should be doing everyday!!!  And if we are kind to others and help others out, maybe people like Henry would still be around.  Have a blessed day!!!
