    gift article.....


      Boxes kept coming from a mystery donor. An obituary revealed her name.

    In the weeks leading up to Christmas last year, piles of packages from strangers arrived daily at the Virginia home of Susan Thompson-Gaines.
    It was her third year of running a gift-giving project out of her house, an effort that involves her placing a desk in her yard, encouraging children to write letters to Santa and granting their wishes by buying and wrapping items on their lists. The first two years, it was a neighborhood effort. But last year, she expanded it to give others a way to provide gifts for the more than 200 children who wrote letters. She created an Amazon Wish List, and as people across the country learned about the project, they started clicking away.
    That’s when the first package from E. A. Raven arrived.

    This made me cry while I was smiling. 
    I wish that good news stories were profiled a lot more. Positivity breeds more of the same.
     As someone I admire greatly says, "Go out and do something nice for someone else today."
