My Eyes Are Filled With Tears As I Write This

I am on the receiving end of the most astonishing acts of kindness. Three weeks ago I met a young woman, on line, who wanted to work but couldn’t do so because her English is poor and she has difficulty communicating. Retired and in my 70s I was not in a position to offer her work, but, with a background is in Adult Education I offered to teach her English. Bea accepted...

Today I was shopping with my elderly mother. We were in the bread aisle when another elderly lady asked me the price of the bread she had in her hand. I told her it was $3.70. She said how sad it was how much everything had gone up. She said to me she wouldn't be able to afford it so asked me to put it back on the shelf. That was when my mum went to...

It was a glorious Spring day. The Earth was finally awakening from her Winter slumber. New life was everywhere. The sky was clear and blue. The air smelled sweet. The sun was kissing the world with its warmth. It was already nearly 70 degrees. I was driving to pick my son up from the sheltered workshop were he works a few days a week. On my drive I saw the daffodils and tulips blooming in...

I'd Be Proud If They Were My Kids

Well done to the group of teenage boys at Aldi today. Each one of them put $20 on the counter for the elderly couple at the register. They were so shocked I thought the lady might faint. All the boys waited and put all their groceries into bags for them. These boys were no older than 16. I'd be proud if they were my...

I took my two eldest children ten pin bowling. Once we finished our bowling games I let them have a little play on the arcade games. My son was very fortunate to win the 1000 ticket jackpot on one of the games! My children then redeemed the tickets for some prizes they liked. Whilst deciding what else they could get with their remaining tickets, they overheard two young girls say they didn't...

On my way home from work yesterday, I saw the most lovely thing. It was raining and their were 3 young ladies waiting at traffic lights to cross a busy road. I saw a man come out of a business and give the ladies an umbrella. I put my window down and called out to him, told him he is a sweetheart, he said to tell his wife that! With a little giggle, all round, I believe we all...

Yesterday was a beautiful day. While taking my dog on a walk through the neighborhood, it happened to be trash day. I was walking past the home of an elderly man in his late 80s who loves to sit in a chair in his garage during the day when the weather is nice. The garbage truck pulled up to his house and emptied his bin. Afterwards I watched the truck drive to the next house but the...

Once a young boy came home from his hostel after one year. One day he went to the backyard of their house. While strolling around the backyard, his eyes captured some unusual things which he had never noticed one year ago. Some of the fruits were in amazing sizes. He plucked a few and ate them. Then he came back and asked his mom, ‘Mama, when did you get this variety of fruits? They are so juicy and...

Just had one of those moments where I feel like I’ve made it. Just at home with my partner, reading a book with our dog napping on the rug, in our cozy living room whilst it rains outside.  I struggled a lot with my mental health when I was younger. I was bullied by everyone at school from ages 6 - 16. I was severely depressed, anxious, paranoid and struggled making friends etc I also...

A fair few weeks ago a storm came through our neighbourhood. A small, white dog turned up at our front door shaking, wet and muddy. Poor little thing was terrified. We let him in to be comforted by our two little dogs while I tried to contact the owner. After a while I got hold of her. She had been so worried and was so thankful that we'd kept Jack safe. Today, Easter Sunday, this...

Her Gratitude Was More Than Enough Payment

By Rachael on April 07, 2023 / 2,231 views

In the supermarket the other day and the woman next to me quietly told the cashier she only had $60 so could she stop there. This lady had cheese, bread, toilet paper, milk, cereal and frozen veggies she'd have needed to put back. I'd already gone through my checkout but hovered a bit so I could pay the remaining amount for her. She teared up and said she'd been having a super tough time...

Hubby and I were out eating lunch yesterday when a lady came in known by all at the cafe and was talking loudly to her daughter on the phone. I said to my hubby she reminds me of mum (who passed 18 months ago). Mum was hard of hearing so she'd talk loudly well that made me smile. Mum used to also known at her local cafe and was always chatting. Unbeknownst to me as we were leaving my...
