thoughtful thursday

tuesday was may first, may day.  may day brings a long held tradition of putting flowers in a container, leaving them at the door of someone, knocking (ringing), then fleeing before the door is opened.  flowers are always a good idea and so are surprises.  i participated in may day this year by offering my version of the tradition to several wonderful people throughout the day.  everyone who received a may day basket was very surprised and very pleased to be remembered.  "i haven't gotten a may day basket in years!" was exclaimed many times over.  so small an effort to make others happy.  we can all make small efforts each day to make the world a happier place to be.
