Day 136: Positive Bookmarks For Strangers

As I was walking through the EWU campus mall I notice a sign that read,"Need a little positivity? Come visit our table." Curious, I walked over to the table and asked the girls what this was all about. The four girls were all taking part in a project for a leadership class. They just wanted to spread a little love and positivity with sweet messages. At the table were bookmarks and markers for students to write anonymous and kind notes for strangers. If you wrote on a bookmark, then you got a bookmark.  A great and simple idea that could make a great difference.

Fascinated with the idea, I grabbed a bookmark and wrote whatever kind thought popped into my mind. After, I got this sweet bookmark below. It was such a good feeling to receive and simple note. In return, it felt good knowing that your bookmark could also bring a smile to a complete stranger's face, like it did mine.  :) This week I encourage you to leave a kind note for a stranger...you never know how much they may be needing it.

God bless,
Kailee

Day 127: Voted!

Today is the ASEWU election and the only chance for Eastern students to get their Macklemore tickets! Students can either vote at school or online by clicking here. Eagles, you have until 10PM this evening to vote! It felt good to vote because although I may only be one person it could make a difference. Also, I have been on the flip side of this situation and know how important it is for others to vote!

Even though this is just a college government election, it is still important to vote and encourage others to do the same. Maybe this will spark an interest in someone to run for a future position and/or vote in a local, state or national election. Voting is a right that we, as citizens, have been blessed with. Don't forgo this blessing on any level and get to know the issues- they may effect you more than you know!We may be just one person, one voice, one check mark, but who ever said that one was not enough?
