<P>For 40 years I worked as an announcer/producer in radio. I enjoyed creating
commercials. What a delight it is to see yours, made for the *right* reasons.

<P>I truly believe that with just a little compassion from each of us around
the world we would have a much better place to live no matter where you live!
Just be willing to GIVE and stop expecting to receive.<BR><EM>Posted over 1

<P>I've seen something like this happen. I live in New York city as well and I
was on a Bus and all the seats were occupied buy these high school kids and a
woman, who was pregnant, came on to the bus with shopping bags and no one
offered to even let her sit so when I saw her standing I got up and offer her
my seat. As the woman sat everyone looked around at her then back at me and I
didn't care. They needed to see what good manners and kindness
is.<BR><EM>Posted almost 2 years ago by Meika from Manhattan, New York

<P>I was watching TV and this ad came on and I was so touched by it that I
immediately went to my computer to access the website. My goal is to touch as
many lives in a positive manner as possible and the 'theme' of this ad is
exactly what our message in my life and Company are!<BR><EM>Posted over 2

<P>I was working on a puzzle and thought about changing the channel but
didn't. This commercial came in almost immediately and it actually made my
day. Thank you for these gentle and wonderful reminders.<BR><BR><BR><EM>Posted

<P>If only people could see beyond the raindrops, beyond the storms...
Whatever we do in kindness, blossoms ten fold in the moments and minutes
ahead. I am looking forward to the next downpour!<BR><EM>Posted over 3 years

<P>This was probably one of the first of your spots that I saw on TV and I
really admire you guys for doing this. I think if we all do just a little bit
to help, this world would improve so dramatically.<BR><EM>Posted over 3 years
