The Blessing Box is a concept new to me. Saw one for the first time on my new daily walk route here in Jefferson City.

The Little Free Libraries are, of course, legion. Here is a locator app, even, that maps the little libraries. 

Which reminds me today of BookCrossing, in which one releases a book into the wild, for a random reader to pick up, read, and perhaps re-release in a new location. I did this for a number of my vintage paperback science fiction novels.

In Mobile, I attended the grand opening of a Free Little Art Gallery

All of these Little Things, I like them. They nurture sparks of community.
