It starts with YOU

Wow, what a beatiful warm fuzzy start to the day!
Logged in to all the usual things I log into daily and came across a link to a site called Drop a Love Bomb.

Curious, I clicked and within moments, signed up to join this heart warming community.

So what is it!?
This site has been created in order to offer words of kindness and support to people going through a hard time.
You sign up and then each Thursday will receive an email with the weekly 'mission.'
I just takes 5 minutes to click on the link (normally to a blog site) and offer words of support to a stranger who is going through a tough time.

What an incredibly beautiful concept!
To not feel alone when you are going through something difficult... To have words of love and support offered to you in a time of need...
And to be able to be someone who can contribute in making a positive impact on somebody else's life... thank you Nate St. Pierre (founder) for dreaming this up!!

Drop a love bomb is a spinoff site from a project called ItStartsWith.Us
You'll read the following on the 'About' tab when you have a browse through the site, but I thought I'd post it here as it really just shows how special this movement is;

"The goal of ItStartsWith.Us is to build a global community of individuals focused on making a positive impact in the lives of the people around them.

Each and every one of us has the ability to change the world by touching lives in this way. And when we hear stories about the positive things others are doing, we become more aware of the opportunities we have to make a difference for the people around us."

Go on, have a look and sign up.... 5 mins a week to drop some love on somebody who genuinely needs it... Why wouldn't you?
