Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Best Day Of My Life

Today is the best day of my life!  

I say this every day before I even get out of bed! Then I think what I am grateful for - a nice warm bed, heat in my house on this cold, wintery day, coffee, running water, a nice house, my family, my health, my kids, my hubby, his job, our town, etc. Then I get up and get on with my wonderful day!
 
As I drove into town I saw a lady my grandma knew walking along. I stopped and offered her a ride, which she gladly accepted. I dropped her off at her destination, less than five minutes away.
 
Next, I did my grocery shopping - and noticed someone waiting for a ride outside! I knew her face so I inquired if I could help. "Sure," she said. "My ride won't come for an hour and I could call and cancel when I get home." And so another five minute journey was made.
 
Then, thankful for my Tim Horton's coffee, I offered to pay for the person behind me. I didn't know him but I left $5 towards his order, knowing it would put a smile on his face.  Then I headed home.
 
That's three acts of kindness in one trip to town, I thought. Now I will write them up for HelpOthers and maybe they will be contagious!
