Last Spring I started to get some high blood pressure readings so my doctor recommended changing my diet. I mostly gave up salt and also cut back on the foods high in saturated fat because my cholesterol was creeping up a bit too. Thankfully, after a few months my blood pressure is near normal again. I also had a nice side effect of losing some weight, only not in the places I wanted. While I have...

Never thought I would ever be the one writing instead of reading. Having lunch today with 3 girlfriends at Railway Hotel Seymour and this guy stopped at our table and asked if he could buy us lunch. Of course we declined and a very emotional moment took place he said I have just lost my Mum and watching you 4 ladies having lunch is what she loved to do! With that he left money...

I have a three month old baby and got caught in torrential rain with him in the pram today near Robina town centre. I made a run for it, and it was a couple hundred metres of getting absolutely saturated before a man stopped me and gave me his umbrella. I cried tears of gratitude as it had been a day and I just couldn’t believe this man’s kindness. He kept saying,...

Once upon a time in a small, bustling town, there lived a woman named Emily. Emily was known for her warm smile and compassionate heart. Despite facing life's challenges, she carried an aura of gratitude that inspired everyone who knew her. One day, Emily stumbled upon an old, dusty jar in the corner of an antique shop. Intrigued, she picked it up and noticed a small label that read, "The...

I was on my way home, walking along the main street of Newtown, Sydney, and as is typical on a weekend, spotted a market stall with jewellery run by a woman with a gorgeous black toy sized poodle. Her dog was 13 years old and all over me. We had a great chat about how much we loved poodles, and how they are the second smartest breed after Border Collies. Then I looked at her jewellery and...

This morning, before I left for the airport, I hurt my back and I could hardly lift my bag off the floor never mind into the overhead locker. One of the flight attendants did that for me, they didn't need to. I was very grateful. A man sitting in front of me must have paid attention to me getting help, and when the plane landed, he got my bag down for me without me even needing to ask. He then...

It was November. Most of the leaves had fallen off the trees leaving only skinny, gray skeletons in the surrounding mountains. The sky was gray too with overcast clouds dumping down a cold, bone chilling rain. My mood matched the day. I knew that Thanksgiving was coming up soon and then Christmas but after that a long, dark, cold winter would arrive and I wasn’t looking forward to it. The...

My friends and I are at the age at which we're downsizing. We want "another thing to clutter the house", making gift giving difficult. I found a wonderful solution that won't create a bit of clutter. I sew an item, such as a dress or baby blanket. I donate it to charity. I write a card, "In honor of your birthday, I sewed a size 8 dress and donated it to Name of...

Shout out to a Sydney taxi driver Peter who helped my distressed bestie out at the airport when she went to check in and realised she didn't have her passport. He got her back to her house, waited and transported her safely back to the International terminal. Then the kindess continued, with the Air New Zealand staff at Sydney airport who offered only kindness when she presented to...

To the nice man who paid for my wipes and the toy car I was getting for my 3 year old and my 15 month old at Kmart today, I honestly cannot express my gratitude enough because it’s been a really mentally taxing few months with the stuff happening with my 15 month old and while we wait for the removal of his tumour and the bone graft and I actually cried when I got home. I was about to pay for...

My mum has dementia. She always wears red and has been known to give flowers and chocolates to random people to make them smile as a random act of kindness. She is going downhill and is sleeping a lot. She’s not sure what’s going on. She used to go to the local grocery store almost everyday. The past 6 months it’s been rare and I do her...

When I was a young father every Spring at the end of May near Memorial Day, my wife and I would take our kids to her family reunion. It always took place at a picnic area on the side of a mountain. On the top of the mountain was her family’s graveyard. The road to the top of it wasn’t too gentle either. Even when it was grated, it was a rough ride with a dirt road full of pot holes, hairpin turns,...

Was at a bus stop waiting for my bus with a pumpkin when I got talking to a woman next to me about pumpkins and stuff. The conversation continues for a bit until she starts telling me about her son who's 7 and autistic and struggling with English (they’re ukrainian) and how she'd love to be able to buy him a pumpkin to carve because he doesn't get to do a lot of regular kid...

Today my 2 year old son had an unexpected seizure in the store. It was a harrowing experience but one made bearable with the help and compassion from everyone involved. A huge thank you to the woman with first aid training who saw the whole thing unfold and helped my son (and us) while the ambulance came. I wish I knew her name so I could thank her personally. The staff also refused to...

I used coupons at my local BJ’s to buy the candy, so it wasn’t as expensive as you’d think. I did it last year and was so looking forward to doing it again. It was a bunch of combo packs, Snickers, M&Ms, Sour Patch, Milky Way, etc. I don’t know if my kids had more fun going trick or treating themselves or handing out the candy to other kids. I loved hearing the...

For the past seven years I've been supporting my next door neighbor by doing odd jobs for her. She's an 84 year old widow and a tiny woman. I think she's maybe 120lbs and about 5'0", about the same size and age as my Mom. I help her with things that are heavy, I regularly mow and edge her lawn, or change lightbulbs because she gets scared climbing on chairs or a...
