You might have seen these videos on TV … I was reminded of them by Jim Duncan at Real Central VA and thought I’d share – I just think it’s a great way to remember the idea of paying it forward, and the power of taking care of one another. Hope you’ll share it with someone else. That’s all – have a great night!

Ohio State even has a Pay Forward Society – “Hayes preached a lifestyle of paying forward in all that you do. In April 1982, Hayes gave a speech to a crowd of 300 at Harvard University commemorating the life of Emerson. Hayes spoke of the influence Emerson and his essay “Compensation” had on his coaching career.
