Do Good Stuff Today

I ran across a clip from television reporter Steve Hartman's 'On the Road' features that aired on television for a long time. 

The story that popped up was about a man with his beloved mustang car that he had hoped to restore and drive again. But then he was diagnosed with ALS and wasn't able to do the work. So several of his friends from high school decided to restore the car. Other high school buddies paid for the parts. 

They got the car restored, took the man with ALS for a ride, and then decided to visit him again and again and again to drive him around in his car. In the final segment of the story, one of the volunteers said "Just do good stuff for people. Do good stuff today. "

These men gave the man with ALS a priceless gift. And I believe they were enriched by the experience as well. 

So let's go out and do good stuff today. This world needs all the good stuff weekend provide.
