I can't describe the emotions

Yesterday, I went to the local post office and dropped the very first SaGud Things in the mailbox. I can't describe the emotions I felt. It was real now. It wasn't just my fanciful quest to make the world a better place. It wasn't just my little secret anymore. A year and a half ago, I laid in bed and thought about how I wished I'd had something to give a flight attendent, earlier in the day, for being so sweet. And yesterday, I mailed envelopes of them to family and friends, asking them to be Johnny Appleseeds. Simply thank people who are nice to you, who make the extra, unusual, effort to please. Those whoo strive to be good at what they do, just to make your day a little better. I asked them all to say good things to people, in the form of a little paper token. It's nothing short of surreal. And exciting, and joyous, and wonderful. It feels really good. Like graduating. Like finishing a project. Like succeeding.

In less than 24 hours, this site will be live. For the last year, news and discussion of SaGud Things has been limited to my tiny little social network on Facebook, more recently on Twitter and Instagram. Tomorrow, SaGud things will be on the World Wide Web. A slightly larger audience. It blows my mind!
