This was originally intended for a private journal entry, but this, my friends must be shared after a poignant life changer of a day:

But on my drive home today I got to thinking about the ad in the local paper declaring April 9th, 2010 &#8220;Pay It Forward&#8221; Day. Albeit a very unique marketing tactic, [...]]]></description>
