The name of this blog is One Minute of Your Time Please. It only takes a minute to read it. Hopefully it brightens your day, and then its your turn to pay it forward. It only takes a minute or less to brighten someone else’s day. A sympathetic text message. An unexpected compliment. A friendly smile and a hug. Those things can be done in a matter of seconds. You will forget about having made these efforts in minutes, but the recipients of your kindness will carry it with them throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just like that, in your own special way, you will have made the world a little bit better place. You will also have taken the focus off of yourself and your own troubles for just a little while. It’s a win-win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Take a minute to make someone smile today. Or take less than a minute.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
