Subgoal 2f/g: Have a weekly Saturday Anime Matinee.

Subgoal 6b think: I’m pretty special. What if there are other me’s out there? What if we accidentally start doing good deeds? We don’t know what we’re going to do. But no one else knows what we’re going to do then either.

Subgoal 1d: Visit the Tokyo Art Aquarium.

Subgoal 5d: Be a rechargeable kindness battery.

You are doing a good job efffecting 5d by creating value and sharing encouragement in this forum.

Yay! Thank you

Beany,

I agree with Oak, and I'm glad that you know that your battery needs to be recharged!

One of my goals this afternoon: Find out what kind of creatures would live in a place called the Tokyo Art Aquarium.

Rechargeable Kindness Battery -

I thought of the quote from Maya Angelou

"Try to be a rainbow in someone's cloud".

Not to hijack your thread, Beany, but yesterday evening I was out with a friend who suggested we get soft serve ice cream. After we ordered, my friend noticed the shop also served taiyaki, which I had never seen before. It hadn't even registered with me that we were in a Japanese shop. It wasn't a good day for me, but somehow the small connection to you as I watched families eating their taiyakis was a bright spot of my day.

I now have my own mini-goal: return to the shop and order a taiyaki. Maybe I will even photograph it and post the photo here.

Matcha custard filling is my favorite.

Such a comfort food. And Tai (Red Sea Bream) symbolize good luck.

Thank you for associating me with them in your memory rg.
