Stories of Kindness from Around the World

A Kindness Dilemma of Sorts


--by Gyrocloudy, posted May 19, 2016
Little act of kindness and unkindness at the same time??

I was reading and suddenly a bee entered through the window. It was flying near there and suddenly it fell into a spider web I didn't notice before. Quickly a spider descended upon the bee and started to use more web to try to cover it.

I grabbed a pencil and rescued the little bee, without touching the spider. Then the bee was having trouble to get rid of the web. It was on its wings and legs. I watched and tried to help.

It took nearly 36 minutes. Then flew away and returned to say thanks, I'd assume. It was in the curtain. And after some movements of its head, flew again.

So, kind act for bee.
Unkind act for spider, for I stole its prey.
