Nice people exist

So today I was cruising with my girlfriend down the freeway and we got backed up in traffic pretty bad so I was impatient as it is, so when we got back into town I swerved at a stop light and swerved back into my lane after seeing a jeep. Our cars bump so we pull into a parking lot and my heart is in my stomach. I walk...

Karma is Real

I was eating at a restaurant and as I looked outside I saw a homeless girl staring at me. I invited her to my table and we enjoyed our meals we ordered together. When I asked for the bill, they sent it $0.00 with "You did well, now it's our turn." Karma is...

Sometimes this world is a beautiful place. At the shops my daughter made a purchase at Kmart, no problems, then we went to Target and at the checkout realised she lost $20 obviously at Kmart checkout. On the way back to Kmart to see if someone handed it in (yes, wishful thinking) my daughter saw a gentleman drop his ATM...

I heard a beautiful story today at my local bank. An elderly gentleman was depositing a nice sum of money into someone's account. He proceeded to tell the teller that 3 years ago he had a massive heart attack. A young lady - a stranger (19yrs old) revived him. She saved his life! He spoke of her so highly and said...

The impact was far greater than I suspect you realize

I was having dinner with a couple of girlfriends this evening at a Vietnamese restaurant. Food, as always, was delicious. And my two besties, as always, were great company. You were another patron, from a different group sitting nearby. As I stood up to leave, you came over and complimented me on my outfit and...

Two Black Cat Beanie Babies

One time when I was a kid, I was at a Fun Land. I saw a claw machine that had two black cat beanie babies. I've always loved black cats and so I tried to get them, but I couldn't get them. I was spending all my money trying to get the kitties but just couldn't do it. One of the women who worked there...

I went to grab a few items from the grocery store only to get to the checkout and none of my cards worked -decline decline decline. I was pretty embarrassed and shocked as I knew I had money in my acct's, no idea why they didn't work. Of course trying to call the bank on a Saturday let alone Easter weekend- no...

You Get The Face You Deserve

I walked into the bathroom this morning to shave. A part of me wished that I could do it with my eyes closed. I hadn’t enjoyed looking at my reflection in the mirror lately. It just looked too OLD for my 57 years. The thinning hair on my balding head was almost all silver gray now. There were way too many age spots from being out in...

Yesterday I found myself being on the receiving end of the sweetest kind gesture

Yesterday I found myself being on the receiving end of the sweetest kind gesture from a lovely young girl. She was approx 8 to 10 years old and on her own. While going for a walk along the waterfront on the Central Coast I saw this young girl coming toward me and pushing a pretty basic looking trolley with some cuttings in a...

I had a 13-year-old wander into the convenience store I work in

I had a 13-year-old wander into the convenience store I work in. I work in a sketchy part of town that’s full of drugs, guns, and plenty of homelessness. So I was genuinely concerned when I saw her young face, and she looked so worn out and exhausted with all her bags. I asked her what was going on, and she told me that she...

I am truly blessed to live in such an amazing community

Tell me you live in a good community without telling me you live in a good community. Today I put a post up on our local Facebook pages asking if anyone had some pumpkin I could buy as I live 45 mins from the local supermarket and I received multiple messages saying they will drop off a box of fruit and...

Today I saw a lady with a sign who needed some money

Today I saw a lady with a sign who needed some money. I don’t normally have cash on me but today I knew I had a $5 note. So as I handed it to her, I asked her name, introduced myself and had a quick chat. The smile on her face from someone seeing her and not just her need, was worth more than any...

It was a wonderfully warm day for March here in the mountains of my home. It was already warm by the time the sun slowly rose over the mountains and everywhere you could feel hints of the Spring to come. I saw the first dandelions and daffodils blooming through the grass. The air had lost it’s cold winter chill. Buds had appeared on...

I arrived home today, after staying at my partners last night to some packages. After going through the packages and realising one had been sent to a different neighborhood, I contacted the seller. What I didn't see was a Facebook message request. It was a lovely lady who messaged me to see if I was the person who...

I was driving down a busy road yesterday

I was driving down a busy road yesterday. Traffic was bumper to bumper and I was in a bad mood. Pull up at the lights on a busy intersection and there’s a man with a really tall unicycle doing tricks at the lights. This on its own isn’t unusual. I’ve seen street performers at these lights before. But...

Stranger helped my family and I will never forget him

When I was a kid my dad took my brother and I shopping for school clothes. It was during the 2007-2008 financial crisis and he had been laid off work and was struggling to find a job. My mom managed a fast food restaurant so we had some income, but not enough. Even though I was young I realized that we weren't the best off when it came...

When I was 19 and in the Marines, broke as h*ll relying on a bike to get around - I stopped at a yacht dealership one Saturday morning. I always loved boats and the sea. I asked the guy inside if I could look at boats. I was hoping he would allow me to walk the docks just to see them up close. I don't know if he was...

A Penny in the Mud

It had been a long week. I’d had people working over 3 days to repair floors and replace a leaking bathtub in my bathroom. Water damage over a long period of time had caused the floors to soften and rot. It turned out to be a much bigger job than I had hoped with extra materials and a specially ordered tub needed. It was finally done...

What a wonderful human being!

I was filling my car up at the gas station tonight and went to pay. There was a lady in front of me that said, "it’s ok I got this." I was totally shocked and couldn’t believe what I was hearing. The lady said she tries to do a random act of kindness to someone every day and that it made her feel...
