Find the Good. — For people who still believe magic hides in ordinary places.

For people who still believe magic
hides in ordinary places.

The world is still full of wonderful things. Most people are just walking too fast to notice.

What is Find the Good?

Find the Good is a noticing project.

I collect stories, coincidences, observations, and small moments of humanity.

The things most people walk past.

The things that make me smile in a grocery store, train station, parking lot, or on a random Tuesday afternoon.

I'm not trying to convince anyone life is perfect.

I'm simply interested in the good that exists alongside everything else.

And I've noticed that when you start looking for it, you find more of it.

A Few Years Ago I Noticed This

I was sitting in a London train station eating a sandwich.

Across the waiting area stood a young man with flowers tucked into his backpack.

For fifteen minutes he barely moved. Just waited.

Then a young woman appeared at the top of the escalator.

He started waving. She started running.

They hugged. They kissed. He handed her the flowers.

They forgot there was anyone else in the station.

I finished my sandwich smiling. Those two strangers had no idea they'd improved my day.

That's Find the Good.

THE MONTHLY LETTER

Every month, I'll send a short letter.

A story, observation, coincidence, or small moment that made me stop and look twice.

The things most people walk past.

The things that remind me the world is still full of wonderful, strange, and unexpectedly human moments.

Leave your email below and I'll send the next one when it's ready.
