I Felt Random Kindness Today

By Shannon • December 5, 2022

My doggo Gemma has days left, her kidneys are failed. So we're doing her favourite things like doing to parks, local shops to sniff things. But we are extremely slow.

A lady stopped by and said "aww so sweet. How old?" I said we don't know, she's a rescue, but possibly 16, she only has a few days. The lady told me her dog is being put down this next week.

Then she gave me biggest, warmest hug.

I don't cope with people being overly emotional and sympathetic at me (ew). The hug was perfect. Except THEN I got teary.

I felt random kindness today.
