She just made my day
I was in Safeway getting a sandwich. The girl who was making my sandwich was completely overwhelmed.
Stories of Kindness
Ensure to be kind
Recently I went for a walk around my local neighbourhood to enjoy a little fresh air and enjoy a spot of sunshine. During my walk, I came across a gorgeous little bucket filled with lemons hanging from a fence. ‘Help yourself’ was written on the bucket inviting anyone walking by to enjoy. Immediately I thought…
I send good karma their way
So this happened on our trip to Vermont, on the hike up to Camel’s hump (burrows trail?). With me are my wife, my 7-year-old daughter, 3-year-old son and 1-year-old strapped to me. The weather forecast was great, warm and sunny. It took us almost 3 hours to make it to 3/4 way to the top….
Spread a little love
Last night the kids and I ran to Kroger because we felt like baking cookies. In the checkout line there was a lady in front of me. She smiled at me. I was laughing. She said what’s so funny? I said the cashier just tried to ring up someone’s umbrella (it had been raining) she…
Reconnecting with my teachers
Recently I sent some coupons to my old elementary school (that I went to from ’89 to ’94), just in an act of kindness since I know some teachers have to provide their own supplies, etc. I wasn’t really expecting that the current principal would know me, but I still wrote a letter, telling her…

It brought so much joy!
Some weeks ago, our friend was chatting with us and mentioned out of the blue that she loves the tacos from a certain fast food restaurant near her. Almost immediately, I knew I wanted to surprise her with them at some point. I get super impatient when I have to wait to surprise someone, but…
They were happy to do it
Recently, a woman posted on a swap site for our city that a co-worker had been robbed and they stole the children’s tv’s and video game system.
The boy was so happy
I was at work today and I had the opportunity to help a nice lady and her 20-year-old son find an ethernet cable they needed.Â
Our two kind strangers
Something wonderful happened to us thanks to various Facebook notice boards and we wanted to share our experience.
I appreciated her genuine appreciation
This is really simple but I was caught off guard and it was a really nice change. As my son and I were leaving a local restaurant today, I held the door for several older couples going in and out. Just as I was about to let it go, I saw someone coming around the…
I didn’t need his reaction
Walking into a shopping centre, I saw an elderly gentleman asleep on a bench. It was a very cold day and I just happened to look down at his nice leather shoes to notice he wasn’t wearing any socks. I continued on my way thinking about this man when I saw a sign out the…
