I'm Really Grateful For The Man That Stopped And Helped Me

By Jess on August 18, 2023 / 3,344 views

This morning I got into a car accident and was obviously very shaken and scared. I was in such a state I wasn’t able to get out of my car until a man in a truck who was behind me stopped and approached me. He manoeuvred all the airbags out of the way and got me out of the car and sat me down. He made sure I was okay and kept me safe. Considering other people were only getting out of...

I Was Playing Lawn Bowls Last Week...

By Aaron on August 16, 2023 / 2,335 views

I was playing lawn bowls last week and one of the competition players saw me bowling came up and asked if I had a new set of bowls would I join the club and start playing competition. I said I would be joining up soon and buying myself a new set eventually. He said if you had a new set would you join up? I said that's my plan, sorta, but the opposite way around. He handed...

I was looking around for a good quality ladies bike for my wife, one lady said that she had one still in the original box from the shop. We had a look and it was exactly what we were looking for. We put the bike in the car and asked the lady how much she wanted for the bike, she said "nothing, I wasn't going to use it, you can have it" ..... thanks heaps to that...

A Fresh Start

By Joseph J. Mazzella on August 14, 2023 / 3,562 views

I realized this last year that I have now lived here longer than my Mom did. That just didn’t seem right to me. If anyone deserved a long life it was my Mom. She was so full of kindness, laughter, love, and good cheer and she shared her gentle spirit with everyone. During the last 4 years of her life she battled Cancer. But she used even this to grow closer to us all. I remember calling her on the phone...

I Hope We All Do Random Acts Of Kindness Like This. Increases Our Hope In Humanity

By A Friend on August 12, 2023 / 3,686 views

I was going home from Raidurg in metro and started complaining to my friends about how hungry I was. We were joking about it and I even pointed out someone's juice bottle in their bag and joked about simply stealing it, they weren't looking at me so I was safe anyway. A minute later this nice lady sitting beside us just asks us if we're hungry. We look at each other's faces and I...

Just Want To Share A Gratitude Post... Which I Hope Will Warm Your Souls

By A Friend on August 11, 2023 / 3,181 views

On Tuesday I found out that my mum who lives on her own had food poisoning on the weekend and she couldn’t eat anything for few days. She was feeling weak and helpless as she is isolated since I moved interstate at the end of last year. My heart ached to hear how vulnerable she was and I wished I could care or cook for her something that will nourish her back to health. I’m so...

Today, My Mom And I Left For A Girls Trip

By Caitlin on August 10, 2023 / 3,062 views

Today, my mom and I left for a girls trip. Before the plane set off, I noticed that a young woman across the aisle was drawing on her iPad and it looked so realistic! I thought she was so talented and every now and again through the flight, I glanced over to see her progress! I decided to make a card to say how talented I thought she was and how I loved to be creative! I wrote and colored...

Showing Us That We Are Loved

By Joseph J. Mazzella on August 08, 2023 / 3,391 views

It was late July and except for a few fluffy, white clouds the sky was a brilliant blue. The sun was shining on the green grass giving it a golden hue. Birds were busy flying to and from their nests feeding their rapidly growing babies. The air was full of the smell of fresh cut grass and the scent of sweet Clover. In the meadow behind my house I could see deer grazing by the edge of the woods. Our black cat,...

I Am Gobsmacked

By Colleen on August 07, 2023 / 3,169 views

Friends, I have to share this with you! I was just on the receiving end of a lovely act of kindness! Making small talk with the grocery delivery driver today, and commented on my luck at finding a particularly rare flavour of sofdrink I love. I was extolling it’s virtues while lamenting the fact that, while it wasn’t cheap, I had to treat myself, and he said that was one of his favourite...

It's Only A Little Thing But Meant A Lot To Me

By Nina on August 07, 2023 / 3,113 views

It's only a little thing but meant a lot to me. My 81 year old neighbor has been in hospital and is now in rehabilitation to try and get her strong enough to be somewhat independent. She loves cannoli from our local Italian restaurant - today I called in and ordered a serve to take to her. When I ordered it the staff member looked quizzically at me and I said "yes I often buy it...

To The Lady At Tullamarine Airport

By Trish on August 07, 2023 / 2,972 views

I want to say a HUGE thank you to the lady at Tullamarine Airport on Saturday night around 10pm who let me use her phone to ring my phone that I had left in the toilets near Gate 51 thirty minutes earlier. She didn't know me from a bar of soap but handed me her phone to ring whilst she went to the toilet - and offered it when she saw how distressed I was. Also a huge thank you to the...

Gentler Lights

By Joseph J. Mazzella on August 03, 2023 / 2,544 views

I knew it was going to be a bad fireworks season this year when I saw so many different tents selling them to the public. I was right too. The bangs and booms started before the first of July and lasted way past the fourth. I have never been a big fan of fireworks since I was a boy. It was then that a local fair set off a huge show near our house and I saw how the noise terrified our dogs. I sat on the floor...

I Will Pay It Forward

By Kristy on August 03, 2023 / 3,470 views

Both my cards declined tonight when I went to pay for a few groceries - I’d forgotten about a new direct debit I’d set up that was taking money out today to pay a bill. I looked for cash in my wallet but I didn’t have enough so I asked the cashier to put a few things back. A man behind me in the queue told the cashier to keep scanning and he would pay for everything. I...

Life has been a bit harder for us this year. I will ensure when the time comes to...

Yesterday While Out Driving With My Aunty, She Said She Felt Her Car Was Pulling To The Left

By Kate on July 31, 2023 / 3,089 views

Yesterday while out driving with my Aunty, she said she felt her car was pulling to the left. We stopped at her local farm shop and as soon as we parked a lovely young man approached her window. He told her that her rear left tyre was very flat. He had been driving behind us and followed up into the carpark. He then whipped out a portable tyre pump and proceeded to put air in the tyre so...

Something Pretty Amazing Happened Today At Work

By Lucia on July 29, 2023 / 3,314 views

I don’t have any pictures or videos but something pretty amazing happened today at work. I work at a Starbucks inside a target and we have some regulars. One of them was talking to my other coworker about her applying for other jobs. I think they’re both in their forties. He asked her how the job search was going and she said she’d finished her resume but needed someone...

To The Metal Detector Man In Maine...

By A Friend on July 28, 2023 / 2,472 views

You ran right over to me. It was actually very endearing to see somebody care that much about a stranger to lend a helping hand. We've all lost our wallets before, but when you lose your wallet in the sand at the beach, that's a whole different level of lost your wallet. So there I am kicking around the sand in Old Orchard Beach for about a half hour with my phone flashlight (oh...
