Random Acts of Human Kindness

Random Acts of Human Kindness

Hi @Bunniekins@Faith-and-Hope@soul@Phoenix_Rising@Former-Member@Ant7@outlander@Former-Member@Bubbles3

I am struggling with names here - I keep losing what I have done so maybe it's better to start with a few

Greenpea and I each had a moment yesterday when someone was kind to us - a Random Act of Human Kindness

I will tell you about mine and let Greenpea tell you about hers

Mine was me - in the middle of a busy road - near a roundabout - with my crutches really feeling the strain - and a motorist in a van of some kind stopped and waved me across holding up other cars at the same time

Let's share these moments with each other - they are truly rare enough and they lighten the heart

Hi @Bunniekins@Appleblossom@Shaz51@Ant7@Faith-and-Hope 👋🏼

Great topic @Owlunar! It's so uplifting to share the random acts of kindness we experience every now and then.

Last week I was walking along and the punnet of strawberries I'd bought fell out of my bag and rolled all over the ground. Somebody noticed and stopped to help me pick them up. I thought that was quite lovely.

Sometimes the little stuff like that takes you out of yourself a bit and back into the social world.

What random acts of kindness have you experienced lately?
