Just wanted to share what made my day today and really celebrate they’re still amazing giving kind selfless people out there. Today I was buying a jolly jumper for my baby and couldn’t really afford it due to not working in many other circumstances but took money out of other things that needed to be paid just so baby would have an awesome thing to play in as she can’t quite crawl...

Today I was at shopping centre waiting for my mum to arrive for lunch. While we were waiting my 2 year old decided to absolutely loose her biscuits and I ended up leaving. We got to the car and she decided to loose it even more, I was trying to get her in her car seat, and as anyone would know toddlers can be so strong she didn’t want to get in the seat. She was fighting it screaming and crying, I was...

Swimming In The Summer

By Joseph J. Mazzella on August 29, 2022 / 2,319 views

When I was a boy we lived across a river from the main road and the only way to get to our house was across an old, wooden, swinging bridge. We also lived right next to Camp Caesar which hosted camps all summer long. And the best thing about it was it had a public swimming pool. I remember spending almost every day of my summers at that pool. I would be there when the pool opened at 1 P.M. and swim until it...

Electric Blanket

By Margaret on August 29, 2022 / 2,158 views

Tonight I worked back late til 10pm and on the drive home I was cursing the fact that I hadn’t been able to turn on my electric blanket, and my bed would be cold and unwelcoming when I finally crawled into it. My 24-year-old son realised I was having a late night, and when I got home he told me he’d turned it on for me. I nearly cried, not just from gratitude for the warm bed,...

To the wonderful lady who came over and praised my 3-year-old son whilst he stood patiently waiting for me to get his younger brother out of the car and into the trolley - THANK YOU! He was exceptionally proud of himself to have received your praise - especially as waiting hasn’t always been one of his strengths. You were very generous and shared 4x50c pieces with him which...

Kindness In Greece

By Loz on August 25, 2022 / 2,266 views

We are 2 older Australian’s currently holidaying in Athens. Today, whilst on an 8 hour tour, we got drenched in an unexpected torrential downpour on our way to lunch! My husband uses a walker, so there was no where to get out of the rain quickly. The restaurant owner saw us walk in, and immediately gave my husband a spare staff shirt to wear! After we had finished lunch, she came to...

Buried In The Backyard

By Joseph J. Mazzella on August 22, 2022 / 2,515 views

I love old stories, parables, and fables. They say so much with so few words. They reach right into your heart and mind and shine the light of truth. One of my favorite of these stories is of an old farmer. He was constantly worried about his farm, his health, and his family’s security. This made him frustrated, fearful, angry and upset. He often took this out on his family as well. One day...

I Managed To Hit A Pothole So Hard...

By Jodi on August 22, 2022 / 1,990 views

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...

Binky

By Cyndie on August 22, 2022 / 2,245 views

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...

By Jaya on August 19, 2022 / 2,433 views

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 / 2,291 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...

A Very Kind Soul

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

By Joseph J. Mazzella on August 15, 2022 / 3,224 views

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...

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...
