Celebrate Random Act of Kindness Day on February 17th

This special day was created with the idea that more people may take the time to do something kind like say “hello” or “good morning” to strangers, smile, or help if they see someone in need. It’s also a great time to do something special for those in your life. Being kind just feels good for everyone involved. In a stressed out world, just a smile can help someone feel better about their day. It puts a positive vibe out there and is catching. Once one person starts it, the wheels are in motion for others to turn to the next person with a smile or kind word. Of course, a gift on Random Act of Kindness Day wouldn’t hurt either!

We all wish flowers would last forever, but unfortunately once we cut them and remove them from their natural environment, they begin to die. Even in nature, flowers eventually die and then are replaced with new blooms. However, if you have flowers in a vase, there are some ways that you can keep them fresh longer so you can enjoy them for the longest time possible.
