Love Through Acts Of Service


--by sunkissed, posted Jun 26, 2019
Two days ago, I helped my Little, one of my close friends who just graduated, move out of her apartment. We planned to have a nice dinner before she moved back to her hometown 400 miles away, but being the caring person she is, she had offered her time to help her friends move during dinner, even though she needed to pack/donate things herself.

She isn’t usually one to ask for help, so I knew that I had to offer my time/energy persistently if I was going to be useful. I bought her boba to drink because I knew she hadn’t eaten and then rented a carshare for her to borrow. It was a whole debacle - the first carshare we rented wouldn’t open, so we had to be Lyft-ed to another car a few blocks away.

This car then had no gas, so we had to gas this car, which pushed back our timeline by 40 minutes. Despite it all, it was a fun lasting memory with her, and I’m glad I was able to show her my love through these small acts of service.
