I really dont know how to put into words my experience I felt this weekend when doing a "Random Act Of Kindness".
Traditionally and especially for me, giving to charity has been rewarding but it never answered the lingering question of: Who did I help?
The heartfelt and surprising response that I received from the Mom and I her 10-12 year boy (I was stunned at how polite and well spoken both were) was 1st a THANK YOU, but then they told me that they didn't need the help.
I asked them if they knew of someone that could use a little assistance to which they answered yes. So I gave them the gift card and left the store.
My point in writing this is in hoping others will consider doing a RAK especially in this current day and time where a lot of people are hurting...you will be left with a smile on your face and quite possibly a couple of tears.....
