I managed to hit a pothole so hard I dislodged my rear view mirror from my windscreen. The man at my local windscreen repair place was friendly and fast and wouldn’t allow me to pay a cent to glue it back into place, no matter how many times I offered. He set my Friday morning off in an inspirational way, and I put his kindness back into the universe by giving food gift vouchers to...

This is my 15 month old grandsons Binky. While at a large Western Sydney shopping centre Binky slipped away without being noticed, until he was needed, then it became a code red. My daughter frantically backtracked her steps and asked in every visited shop, but Binky remained at large. Our little man needed his Binky. My daughter had purchased a couple more Binky's, for just this sort of...

I always see one lady in Toa Payoh MRT station (only Monday to Friday) CROCHETING for hours but with very little sell. Her works are amazing and diverse. She follows some pattern books and keeps making something new to attract more customers. She even takes customized orders and make anything that customer would like to. While I was buying some crochet bottle holders for my kid today, she broke out...

Two Way Kindness

By Anita on August 17, 2022 / 1,980 views

I have just started volunteering at a local Aged Care Facility and whilst waiting for an activity to start, I played a little tune on their piano. The residents loved it, tapping along and I was so happy that it had brought them a bit of joy. But the biggest Kindness was when one of the residents pulled me aside and thanked me so much for taking that time and bringing music back into their...

My son who is 19 set off on a a long drive from Brisbane to the Whitsundays at 9:30 Friday night, facing a long 12 hour drive. He was moving back home after 2 years of living away, he had a friend for company, 2 cats and a car full of all of his stuff. At midnight the car broke down and they found themselves stranded in Gympie, unable to get hold of any hotels or mechanics. They were freezing! After...

The Cost Of Loving

I had just stopped by the local grocery store to pick up a few items. The small store was almost empty and only one cashier was working. I pulled up to her aisle and waited while the guy in front of me was unloading a full cart of food. I was in no hurry so I relaxed while she rang him up. He put all the bagged groceries back into his shopping cart and was about to leave when he asked if he could push the cart...

Thank You To These Beautiful Strangers

I took my elderly Mum, who has quite severe Dementia, out to a local park today at Windang. We met a lovely couple walking their gorgeous 5 month old Newfoundland pup, Scarlett. The couple were so generous with their time and spoke so kindly to Mum. They really encouraged her to interact with Scarlett and seemed genuinely interested in her enjoyment. Even to the point that they asked if the Care...

Folded Clothes

We are at a caravan park. I put my clothes in washer at night. Next morning I went to get them out and put in dryer, only to find someone had dried and folded all my clothes! We were absolutely amazed at someone’s kindness - paying $5 for the dryer AND folding all the clothes! Thank you to the kind person who blessed us! I am a single mum and had had a...

A Gentle Reminder From Above

By Joseph J. Mazzella on August 10, 2022 / 2,330 views

It was the Summer that everything broke. So far we’d had two broken washing machines, a dead DVD player, a cracked faucet, a broken chair, a flat tire, and vet bills for our oldest, ailing dog. All of them had seriously drained my savings and made me wonder what the heck was going on in my life. The latest problem had been a toilet tank that stopped filling. It was a 30 mile round trip to the only open...

Yesterday we were traveling to "The Tip" of Australia at Cape York (for anyone not familiar that is the northernmost point on the mainland of Australia and is a fairly remote but very popular spot to visit) we were stopped by another traveller and told someone was being "winched out" and we couldn’t get passed. We waited a while to see a car reversing back around the bend...

The most amazing thing just happened. After a marriage break up I am struggling. But I am also trying to look after myself. Day six of not smoking. I had some money and was waiting in line. Turned around and said hey should I buy these or not?? He said what do you mean. Should I buy these cigarettes or not. He said. No. You should walk away. So...

I don't have any money, so am never able to help out in that way, but yesterday a lady told me a million $ wouldn’t have been as good. Racing around the supermarket (as you do) and I looked up and made a choice There was an older lady in my eye line, looking gorgeous.

A Tale Of Three Washers

By Joseph J. Mazzella on August 05, 2022 / 2,270 views

I don’t believe in luck, but if I did I would say I have had a string of the bad kind lately. Last week my washing machine broke. It just wouldn’t wash. I hadn’t had it that long either. Like anyone these days I tried to figure out if I could fix it online but soon realized the repairs would cost more than a new machine would. Then this week my daughter’s washing machine broke. It was...

Bilingual Babies

By Letty on August 04, 2022 / 1,934 views

Twelve years ago I decided to change my job from an English as a Second Language teacher to simply working at a department store childcare room, basically for better hours and benefits. My charges were preschoolers, and to my surprise, many of these 2-4 year old children knew no English at all because shoppers at the store were families of employees at an international company with headquarters nearby. I found...

This Story Is Not For Any Props, Just Such A Gorgeous Story...

By Bex on August 01, 2022 / 2,105 views

So like any I have been through my fair share of horrible. A year or so ago when I really just needed some kindness, I got chatting to an old chap and his wife at the grocery checkout. As we chatted he helped me load my groceries onto the conveyer belt and I joked that it had been a while since a gentleman had helped me with the groceries. We chatted about life and family, part of which he commented on my...
