I just read an amazing story online about Jim Friel, a middle school principal, who is going to donate one of his kidneys to a 13-year-old eighth-grader at his school WOW! That simply amazes me. I watched the video and read the story and the whole time there was a lump in my chest. Don’t cry Don’t cry…I’m at work for pete’s sake! You hear so many stories on the news about this drive-by shooting or this robbery or that drug bust. The news seems to kill the good in the human person. I think hearing so much negativity actually increases intolerance in average people. We get afraid that something bad will happen to us so we don’t open up to others. It can be a nasty cycle.
We need to hear more stories like this! More people doing something good to change the world. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a news station that was devoted to showing superb people doing positive actions to change the world? I would love that show! I need to hear more positive things in my life. Every time I hear someone doing something good I want to go out and do something too! Not saying that I am ready to donate my kidney but I want to change the world. So thanks Jim! You are my hero.
