Wouldn't you just have loved to have met Andie? I might have learned how to play the harmonica....although it makes my lips tingle when I try haha!

Thank you, Jill. I fell in love with Andie and his story of incredible kindness. I'm so glad he made your day, too. I guess his ripples of kindness just keep on going.

What a lovely, uplifting story, Heather! Thanks for putting it together. "...serotonin and dopamine... are neurotransmitters that produce feelings of satisfaction and well-being and cause the pleasure and reward centers of your brain to light up." My first thought was that ice cream can do this too! But, sadly, it has the opposite effect on your health. Kindness: low carb, low calorie happiness! ha ha ha

True confessions...I stopped at Dairy Queen last week and got a large Oreo Cookie Blizzard. It felt like personal kindness at the time!

I love this story on so many levels! What he gave to the next generation, how he thrived, how he passed along the generosity of CBS to further his purpose... all beautiful! Thank you

Thank you, Jill. There's that saying that's been going around for years about Michael Jordan. "I wanna be like Mike."

For me, I think I wanna be like Andie. 💚

I love seeing the many ways we can be generous, and no one does it better than the Harmonica man!
