Being Kind Feels Wonderful. I Was Reminded That I Should Be Doing It More Often

Being kind feels wonderful. I was reminded that I should be doing it more often.

My wife and I did something nice for someone today.

The other day we were chatting to one of daughter's educators at day care who is an absolute gem. I was curious as to why she was squinting and still hadn't bought new glasses (it had been a couple of weeks since she'd broken them). She casually explained she didn't have enough money to buy them right now. After saying our goodbyes, we both looked at each other and agreed we should help.

So today we set up an account for her and put enough dosh in there so she could have an eye test and buy a couple of pairs of cool specs.

She was so overcome with gratitude and emotion.

It feels great making someone else's day.
