Random acts of kindness

Well my doctor/therapist came and saw me at home today and brought me flowers. I thought this was really sweet of her and it really cheered me up.

So what's something nice that someone has done for you today (or if you can't think of something for today, this week). Doesn't matter how big or small it is.

anytime anyone calls me, or txts me, or emails me, inviting me out someplace.
it's not really an act of kindness, as such, but it always makes me feel good about myself.

something specific: a very very nice person, who i like very much, sent me a letter with a brandnew badge inside in the envelope.



take what you love
burn it down.

My mum has been great today. Reassuring me about stuff and spending the day with me.
She even kicked a ball around with me which I know she's not too keen on!



How far can you send emotions?

Somebody bought me cookies. I like tasty treats.

On a side note, neat thread. In the city I live in, and all throughout the province, we have an annual "festival" called Youth Week where the community sponsors events to celebrate youth. One of th mini-events is called Random Acts of Kindness where the volunteers involved walk around the city handing out flowers. I actually had to do this 2 years for work experience credit to graduate and most people just stared at us like we were idiots... lol.

My friend knew that I had gained a bunch of weight during my “recovery.” She sent me a bunch of her old clothes. Some don’t fit, some do. I still thought that it was a really nice thing to do.

My mum visited me on Thursday because I was really down because I had trouble with my best friend on Wednesday.
My mum and me went to a shopping mall and went shopping and eat something there.

I was at a store earlier, and this lady let me go to the new line that had just opened, even though she had been waiting longer. It was a little thing, but it was still nice.

Once a woman in the job centre heard me on the phone trying to explain to a debt company that I didn't even have any money to feed myself at the moment so I couldn't possibly keep up monthly re-payments, and she dropped a five pound note on the desk in front of me and just walked off, I didnt even see her face.

I burst into tears right there in the job centre!




this is the first day of my life
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
But now I don’t care I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy

I remember one very nice random act of kindness.
Some months ago, I wanted to go to a supermarket and had neither a chip for a shopping card nor the needed coin.
I asked several people if they could change me some money and I stood there almost ten minutes and nobody could or wanted change me money.
When I just wanted to go home without having shopped, an old women came to me and gave me a chip for the shopping trolley.
That was so kind and nice and I almost started to cry.

An act I did: This is going to make no sense to you guys, but people are supposed to do something called sound off and there was this kid who was late to class and me and about ten other people in the hallway. Fortunately I was the highest ranked one and I just told him to go, don't bother with it.

Something someone did for me: I've been real down lately and a friend said she's going to come by this weekend and kidnap me for a bit.

What I sometimes do because I always be happy when others do this for me is writting letters or sending beautiful cards because I guess that most people get mostly bills and no letters and cards (at least, since there are things like E- mails and messengers).
I find it so sad and frustrating to always open an empty letterbox or a letterbox full of bills .
I guess that most people knows this problem and it is so easy to do something nice for someone if all you have to do is send a card for her/ him.
