Does it get any better than this?

I'm sure everyone and there mom has already seen this, but I just can't get enough.


Sometimes you don't even have to look for good, it comes to you!


Dear mysterious stranger who snuck into my house while I was at work and left me flowers,
You are the best!  


Even better than coming home to these beauties was the suspense after Kate H. texted me to tell me that she had come home to find them.  I still had an hour and a half of work left, but it was a super exciting hour and a half as I tried to guess who they could possibly be from. 



They left this great note.


Which is fairly difficult to read, but still great.  The gift giver has chosen to continue to remain anonymous, which is killing me, but still, so good.

"Despite everything, I believe that people are really good at heart."- Anne Frank



I've never been a huge fan of Anne Frank.  Is that terrible to say?  It is isn't it.  It's definitely not politically correct to say that you don't really like a holocaust victim.  I remember in 3rd grade my mom had to rent the video made from the book so that I could finish my book report because I refused to read any further.  It's something about her crush on Peter or how Auguste van Pels is so rude to everyone that I don't like.


Anyway, despite my personal feelings, the overall story told by Anne in her diary is a lesson in charity, hope, and faith in the ultimate good of man.  That is something that I can get on board with.   I agree with Anne, I believe that people are really good at heart.  If Anne can see that living in a tiny, cramped, annex of an office building with 8 other people, then it should be pretty easy for the rest of us to see it as well.
