Final thoughts

This year was a big year for this project. I stretched myself more than usual, in part because I scaled back so much last year. This was also a challenging year in some ways because my life is already pretty full (and pretty crazy). But thankfully I have a very supportive wife, and very understanding family.

I also tried to make more noise about the project this year. I generally don't like to be the center of attention, and it always feels weird to brag about stuff like this. But at the same time, one of my favorite aspects of all this is hearing from other people who were motivated to go do something because of what I'm doing here. Every year I hear from people who are doing things they wouldn't have done otherwise, and that makes me want to figure out how to make this whole thing even bigger. And then as soon as it's over I happily slip back into stealth kindness mode.

Thanks for following along. Hopefully a few of you were inspired to squeeze in a little extra kindness here and there even if you didn't let me know about it. And if you're really inspired and want to try to do a similar project, feel free to contact me with any questions or advice.

Here's a gallery I put together of all the stuff from this year. Enjoy!
