2012 is a big year. I am turning 40, and I will have been married for 15 years this summer.
When I think about turning 40, I mostly just get depressed. But then today I read this:
How I Celebrated My Birthday (AKA 38 Random Acts of Robyn)
and I decided to stop being depressed and start being awesome.
On the 40 days leading up to/including my birthday, I will do 40 random acts of kindness…one every day.
Then, on the 15 days after my birthday, I will do 15 more, in honor of my 15 years of marriage.
Thus, 40 plus 15 is born.
I plan to write about it here, not because I want accolades or recognition, but because maybe it will inspire you to look around you and be kind in an unexpected way.

Thank you for believing in the power of random acts of kindness. I have seen it with my own eyes and it is a beautiful thing.
PS. The post I published tonight is right in line with your beautiful 40th birthday declaration!
