National Do Something Nice Day 2022

Nice. It means pleasant, agreeable, satisfactory, fine, or subtle. Mother Teresa was nice.

It's not exactly something for which I ever became known.

October 5th is National Do Something Nice Day.

The day is observed in the hopes that people will do something nice for others.

In that busy hubub which is the workaday world we get all preoccupied with things personal or career oriented and we aren't always as nice as we might be otherwise.

I'm afraid that since I've retired my base notions and comportment have not changed, i.e., I try to be socially aware and reasonable — but by no means have I ever intended to project "nice" at anyone.

I do get told that I do nice things periodically. I just don't pursue it as a career.

This day is meant for you to share a little bit of kindness with the people you encounter.

Doing nice things can lead to even more nice things among all of us.

Happy National Do Something Nice Day.
