I really couldn’t collect my thoughts in the way that I wanted when I talked about kindness this morning. Someone emailed me a transcript of this speech around 3am and it was the first thing I read when I got up. George Saunders absolutely captures what I wanted to say, but failed to.
George Saunders’ commencement speech:
“Why aren’t we kinder?”
Amanda is one of my friends that I’ve met through blogging and she’s absolutely perfect. Her gentle reminder pencil collections are just that… gentle reminders.

Those pencils are a good motivation when you're stressed at work and looking for some peace of mind! So ready for the long weekend….but the thought of summer coming to a close gives me anxiety!

Love this speech!
I actually cried listening to the speech. Maybe I'm just a baby, but I really love what he said. Kindness is a quality I really value in people, and try to carry out myself. It can definitely be hard.

I loved the video (and the pencils)! I have really been enjoying your video recommendations lately. The Ashton Kutcher one was great as well.
This is a message more people need to hear! The pencils are also super cute! 🙂
