\n

My heart is full, and
\nautumn has officially begun in my world.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kindness Activist held a
\nPUMPKIN CELEBRATION today, and it was, in a word, glorious.<\/span><\/p>\n

Did it solve any \u201creal\u201d
\nproblems?\u00a0 <\/span>No.<\/span><\/p>\n

Did it end world
\nhunger?\u00a0 <\/span>Again, no.<\/span><\/p>\n

But it DID bring together
\na community in a unique way.\u00a0 <\/span>It gave
\nfolks an opportunity to celebrate the season.\u00a0
\n<\/span>It gave new volunteers a chance to help out and spread kindness.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And pumpkins<\/i> were
\nthe stars of the show.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Hard to choose which little pumpkin you want…<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Ohhhhh pumpkins.\u00a0 <\/span>I have picked up, transported, and carried
\npumpkins so many times in the last 24 hours that I may well turn into a
\npumpkin!\u00a0 <\/span>With events like this, it is always
\nimpossible to know how many people will show up, which makes it hard to purchase
\nneeded supplies.\u00a0 <\/span>But we did a bit of
\nmath and calculated that we needed 100 small pumpkins\/gourds, and 50 bigger
\nones.\u00a0 <\/span>For the bigger pumpkins, we divided
\nthe 50 into some BIG ones (more expensive), some FANCY ones (also pricier), and
\nsome \u201cregular\u201d old traditional pumpkins (on sale!).\u00a0 <\/span>The plan was to give each family one big
\npumpkin, and each kid age 13 and under could also take one small one.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\nstand has a belt that MOVES (when the cashier spins a handle) and a scanner
\nthat lights up and beeps.\u00a0 <\/span>This is fancy,<\/i>

\n<\/span><\/span><\/span>And a super cool
\ncraft: guests could paint or color a paper pumpkin or leaf.\u00a0 <\/span>The talented Jessica cut out lots of those
\nshapes for the event using her Cricut.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Like I said, it is hard to
\nknow how many people will show up.\u00a0 <\/span>I always
\ntry to steel myself to be ok if it is just a handful, but this time people came<\/u>!\u00a0 <\/span>Like, we were CROWDED!<\/span><\/p>\n

Because of a threat of
\nrain, we sat up the Aldis and food on our covered porch.\u00a0 <\/span>We had the craft table in the yard, but a
\nback-up craft table was ready on the porch in case it started to pour.\u00a0 <\/span>The day was gray, but we only got a tiny bit
\nof drizzle once during the whole 5-hour event.\u00a0
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Penrose Aldi is OPEN for business!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

It was so fun to chat with
\nneighbors! \u00a0<\/span>We caught up with old friends
\nand met new people. \u00a0<\/span>I was delighted to
\nhave a couple of kids be brave enough to read stories aloud to younger visitors
\n(and was so glad that I had time to sit on the steps and read some books aloud
\nmyself).\u00a0 <\/span>Whatever you do \u2013 do NOT push
\nthat button\u2026\u00a0 <\/span>That was one of my favorite
\nstories of the day.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Stories on the steps – I loved hearing these<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The artwork people made
\nwas amazing!!!\u00a0 <\/span>We laminated most of the
\npumpkins and leaves and tied them to our fence (a few kids wanted to take
\ntheirs home).\u00a0 <\/span>They look so cute on the
\nfence!\u00a0 <\/span>And it is fun to know that the young
\nartists will likely walk or drive past our house and be proud to see their
\npieces on display.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Just a few of the painted leaves.\u00a0 I was too busy to take a lot of photos, but I want to get one that shows the whole fence – it is so pretty!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

We gave away the majority
\nof the pumpkins and gourds but still have some left.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>And that\u2019s a <\/span>good thing<\/i>, because it
\nhas allowed us to surprise some people as we were cleaning up.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>One man walked by and said hello.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>We explained that we had a pumpkin party
\ntoday, and he gladly accepted our offer to bring a pumpkin home with him.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>Another couple pulled over and parked near
\nthe pantry.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>That often means someone
\ncoming to get food, donate something, or perhaps pick up something that we have
\noffered.<\/span><\/p>\n

But this time it was
\ndifferent.\u00a0 <\/span>These people were going out
\nof their way \u2013 pulling over and walking up to our house \u2013 to thank us<\/i>.\u00a0 <\/span>They weren\u2019t thanking us for today\u2019s event – I
\ndon\u2019t think they even knew we were hosting something today.\u00a0 <\/span>But they were thanking us for the work that
\nwe do in the world.\u00a0 <\/span>For spreading
\nkindness.\u00a0 <\/span>For being a beacon of
\nhope.\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cI drive by your house often on my
\nway to yoga,\u201d the woman said.\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cAnd I drive
\nby all the time on my way to work,\u201d the man chimed in. \u00a0<\/span>They expressed how good it makes them feel to
\nsee what goes on here.\u00a0 <\/span>Then the woman
\nheld something out to me.\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cHere, I would
\nlike to give you this.\u00a0 <\/span>Thank you,\u201d she
\nsaid.\u00a0 <\/span>I looked down at what she had
\nhanded me and saw it was money.\u00a0 <\/span>I didn\u2019t
\nlook at how much it was but I thanked her for being so kind and pitching
\nin.\u00a0 <\/span>She said that she appreciates the
\nwork that I do, and she hopes others in the community do, too.\u00a0 <\/span>We gave them a pumpkin (it was the theme of the
\nday after all) and they were on their way.\u00a0
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When I peeked at the denomination
\nof the bill I realized:\u00a0 <\/span>this complete
\nstranger just gave me $100\u2026\u00a0 <\/span>Heart.\u00a0 <\/span>Melt.\u00a0 <\/span>It
\nreminded me of another time that same exact thing happened when a new to me (at
\nthe time) neighbor pulled over a few years ago and did the same thing.\u00a0 <\/span>People are so kind.<\/span><\/p>\n

We sat down to pull out
\nthe winning names for the raffle and ANOTHER car pulled over \u2013 this time right
\ninto our driveway.\u00a0 <\/span>David walked over to
\ngreet them and see what they needed.<\/span><\/p>\n

I couldn\u2019t hear the
\nconversation, but the two of them were talking for a long time.\u00a0 <\/span>Eventually they walked over and I met the
\nman.\u00a0 <\/span>He, too, drives by our house
\noften.\u00a0 <\/span>He explained that he just \u201cgets a
\nvibe\u201d from our home.\u00a0 <\/span>He asked a friend
\nwho lives near us just what<\/u> this yellow house on the corner was.\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cOh!\u00a0
\n<\/span>That is FRIENDSHIP HOUSE!\u201d they explained to him.<\/span><\/p>\n

Isn\u2019t that the
\nsweetest?\u00a0 <\/span>We\u2019ve heard our home called
\nother things \u2013 Kindness House being the most common.\u00a0 <\/span>But I didn\u2019t know that in some circles it is
\nknown as Friendship House.<\/span><\/p>\n

He thought we were a
\nbusiness.\u00a0 <\/span>In fact, he asked David if we
\nwere open.\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cWell, this is our house, not
\nan office.\u00a0 <\/span>So yeah, we are always open,\u201d
\nDavid told him.\u00a0 <\/span>The man sat down on our
\nsteps and we chatted a long time.\u00a0 <\/span>He
\nasked (as many people do) if this was all part of a religious organization.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s a really common
\nassumption, and I understand why people think it.\u00a0 <\/span>Churches, mosques, and synagogues are most
\noften the groups that work to feed, clothe, and care for their
\ncommunities.\u00a0 <\/span>I explained to the man that
\npeople of all faiths are welcome here and indeed, were present at the event today.\u00a0 <\/span>He asked some hard questions, like, \u201cWhy do
\nyou do what you do???\u201d.\u00a0 <\/span>Those are tough
\nones to answer in the moment.\u00a0 <\/span>But I guess
\nan honest answer is – because I couldn\u2019t imagine not<\/u> doing it.\u00a0 <\/span>Not talking to strangers.\u00a0 <\/span>Not laughing with children.\u00a0 <\/span>Not going out of my way to be kind.\u00a0 <\/span>It is just who I am.<\/span><\/p>\n

If our legacy can do anything,
\nI hope that we can demonstrate that one needn\u2019t be a religious institution to
\nspread kindness.\u00a0 <\/span>To have open arms.\u00a0 <\/span>To be welcoming and supportive.\u00a0 <\/span>You can be just ordinary people who have
\nchosen an extraordinary path.\u00a0 <\/span>You can
\njust be \u201cMs. Susan and Mr. David\u201d and make a big impact.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I honestly thought about
\ncancelling today\u2019s Pumpkin Celebration.\u00a0 <\/span>It
\nwas supposed to be a really rainy day, and we\u2019ve been busy lately and I am
\ntired.<\/span><\/p>\n

But I am so glad we forged
\nahead.\u00a0 <\/span>Seeing the smiles, watching the
\npainting, listening to stories being read and smelling hot cocoa\u2026\u00a0 <\/span>It was worth the effort and time.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

\ndifference in this world.\u00a0 <\/span>But today we
\ndid good.\u00a0 <\/span>We spread joy and
\nkindness.\u00a0 <\/span>One pumpkin at a time.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
The young man in blue made the sign hanging behind him.\u00a0 He and his mamma worked hard on it, and he was SO PROUD when I complimented him on his art.\u00a0\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

When I asked a young volunteer to put this sign together, she had to report:
“Ms. Susan – we have a problem…\u00a0 You do not have a letter “K”…”.\u00a0 In my haste, I suggested that a letter “C”, though a bit unusual, might work.\u00a0 Lucky for me that volunteer’s mom (my friend) had the same letter set at home!\u00a0 She loaned me a “K”.\u00a0 You would think an organization whose name starts with a “K” would have one…<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
