Hi everybody.

This short segment is what we call for the good of the order.

It's something we used to do at the end of my sorority meetings, if you can believe that,

where someone would share something that they came across in the course of the week, a poem, a song lyric, a short story, that they found enormously helpful as they went about daily life.

And I wanted to pick up the thread because I am so often wowed by something I see in the world

that I want to bring back and hand off to you.

So every Friday we produce a short segment called for the good of the order.

Think of it like an audio greeting card, a thing to share with the people that you love around the country

who you don't get to see or talk to enough. A thing to discuss with the people you do see and talk to

on a more regular basis.

This is Kelly Corrigan's for the good of the order and I

wanted to say that there's this article in the Washington Post with all these

photos and I'm kind of loving and so are I think a lot of people.

There's this town near Baltimore City called Rogers Forge which I know well from

having lived in Baltimore for a while both my parents are from there.

And there's this guy, Matt Riggs,

who lived across the street from this woman, Kim Morton.

And she was home watching a movie last year

and she got a text that said,

look outside.

And he had strung white Christmas lights from his home to hers

across the street.
