something that made me happy today

I woke up and got out of bed earlier than I would've like because I had to go get some work done at one of my co-editor's house for our school's yearbook, but from the moment I woke up I was just being yelled at by my mom because she was cleaning and everytime she cleans she ends up in a really bad mood and I ended up leaving over half an hour later than I should have because I was just being yelled and and told how awful I was and eventually I got out of the house and it was pouring rain and I was just walking down my street trying not to cry and I get to the bus stop soaking wet and this woman at the bus stop comes and stands over me with her umbrella and it was just such a kind gesture after such a shitty morning that it just warmed my heart a little. And then I rung the bell to get off the bus too early and a woman noticed and called out to the bus driver for me, and I dunno, seemed almost like some sort of karma related thing.

Some things are just amazing aren't they.

Sometime it can just be the smallest things in a day that can cheer you up a bit, I'm pleased that someone managed to help you feel better after having a bit of a bad morning

sometimes it really is the smaller things that make the most difference.

i went out of my scooter to meet a friend in morrisons and borrowed a wheelchair there. everyone was so helpful which meant i had a great morning out. they came out of the health food shop to serve me as well as the scooter is too big to fit in there.

ah, there are some nice people left in the world then.

I love it when people do something so spontaneous like that.
People can be a mystery and rarely very pleasant, so i changes everything when a stranger makes such a small gesture.
Next to my local college is a huge asda (Clothes and food store for those of you not familiar will Wallmart or Asda). So when its raining i go and stand outside (because i LOVE the rain) and usually end up helping people carry their shopping to their cars under the shelter of my umbrella. Its my secret passion and i like to think that they went home smiling.

I once had a woman nearly cry when I found a belt for her at work. she needed it in a small/medium and she could only find a medium/large and she was really upset as she said she needed it for a dinner tonight. anyways 2 minutes later I find a S/M whilst tdying up and though I would just check to see if I could find her. I found her just as she was about to get served in the queue and she was close to tears just because I found her a belt!
