By Christmas Eve, more than half of my envelopes had found their way to recipients, and I'm excited about dispersing the rest, which includes two additional random acts for a total, for me, of 28 (although I don't intend to stop there!).

Random acts of kindness have been the best part of the holiday season for me this year - both the gifts I have given, and those I have read about.

Taking tragedy, and turning the resulting stress into something good, is the way we bring more peace, joy and well-being to the world.

And it's not too late to join in. Facebook.com/26Acts

Curry encourages everyone to continue to participate at Facebook.com/26Acts.

So does Tidwell, who is no a stranger to RAKs (Random Acts of Kindness.), He has instigated a number of other similar projects in the past, and plans more. He invites anyone interested to join him on his Facebook page to find out about upcoming projects at http://www.facebook.com/westpointbirder
