It’s the first weekend of spring, and love is totally in the air!  A huge thank you to everyone who supported my fund-raising event, last night.  To those who came out to “wine” and unwind, (and thanks, Anne, for being so generous and thoughtful and bringing some cheese and crackers!) and to those who didn’t or couldn’t come (near and far) but still opened their hearts and wallets to help feed the hungry, I simply say THANK YOU.  I am not going to give a grand tally till after I present the donations to the Epsteins and the soup kitchen this coming Thursday evening, but I will say that your generosity will supply many, many hundreds of hot dinners to many, many hundreds of hungry people, right away.  Once again, I thank Ron and Wendie at Tamarac Fitness Center for their support in this as well.  May you all feel really good about your part in this effort.

As I am always off and running early on Saturday morning, I will leave you with this quote:

“Kindness in words creates confidence.  Kindness in thinking creates profoundness.  Kindness is giving creates love.”

–Lao Tzu
