A whole year of doing good

I remember that, as a Brownie I was supposed to 'do a good deed every day', but can't remember ever consciously doing it.

Yes, glass - I quite agree.

bags I agree, I think its the people you meet everyday who do good and don't blow there own trumpet who are the true goodoers.

I got the feeling that the author didn't really like her parents being so 'good' as they were impossible to live up to, and there was a sense that she begrudged having to prove she was as good as them.
Perhaps the book has a different feel.

jeni & gilly perhaps I can lambast you?

Not really jeni just a wee bit whooly headed

Spelling and grammar was never my strong point anyway !

Gillybob are you feeling a little sheepish about it?

He he he ! Glad you pointed that one out Movedalot I hadn't even noticed.

Obviously should have been "gambolling" not playing poker and betting on the horses !

Totally agree with you both bags & gilly. People who tell you how good they are are totally nauseous! Why limit it to one a day? Why go and do good at someone just so you can tick a box? Random good deeds are good and come naturally to kind hearted people.

gilly your typo amused me, lambs gambling, what a picture!

Bagsagreed, and anyway should one TRY to do good? Shouldn't it just come naturally?

Yes me too bags I hate it when people feel the need to tell everyone how good they are!

The people I admire are the ones who do good every day (like some of the ones Judith mentions in her blog) and say nothing about it. Perhaps it's just me, but I find that talk about one's good deeds is a bit nauseating. Sorry, but that's how I feel.

I don't want to sound self righteous (far from it) but shouldn't we all strive to do at least one good thing a day? Making a conscious effort is surely not the right idea. It should come "second nature".

Love the name of the lamb ! I have never eaten baby sheep since the birth of my first grandaughter who was born just as the lambs were gambling around the fields wearing their little carrier bags to keep warm, and................

Although, the reviews on Amazon are very good.

Perhaps once upon a time I would have bought it.

Yes. Very nice blog. Well done Judith. But I'm not buying the book. Soz.
