Random Acts of Kindness - Time to feel GOOD

[Chenonceau]

I love this thread. It’s a good thread to start. May love and positive energy radiate from here and shine a light into the anger, the pride and the discord in other threads.

1st week in school for ds (pri 1) who was in q to buy food and realised he didnt have enough $$$. told dh who was standing a distance away and surprise surprise, the older boy standing behind ds gave his $$$ to ds :love: . The boy's words were \"take it, take it, we are brothers\". :love:


too bad, i wasnt there and ds cant remember who the boy was .......but we are passing this act of kindness round especially during lunch time.

My DD was 13. Her EZ Link card was outta money. She needed some change. She must have looked skinny and forlorn because when she asked for some change, a kindly old man gave her change plus $10 and shooed her into the gate. She tried to return the money but he pooh-poohed her attempts and shoo-ed her away.


A little Malay boy was clutching a bag full of library books at the Customer Service counter of the library. He had lost his wallet with $5 in it. He was frantic and forlorn and the customer service staff shoo-ed him away. I gave him $10 and asked him to go home. The CS staff said that it could be a scam. I thought not. Scams are a regular presence around an area. When I asked if the CS staff had seen the boy before, I was told \"No\". I was touched that he was so little and had a love for books and looked so panicky... $5 meant everything to him and little to me. I gave him $10 because my DD had $10 from a total stranger.

thanks for sharing.

that old man is very kind and generous.

And you are nice in paying it forward ! :hi5:

LOLMum’s sharing reminded me of this incident


DS P1 first day, during recess. DS wanted to buy chicken rice and naturally being I went with him to observe him. There was a P1 girl that queued behind him, she was alone. DS & that girl started chatting about the canteen, food, etc. It was then I realized that she was holding just a 50 cent coin while the chicken rice was 70 or 80 cent a plate. So I gave her a dollar coin.

but ds recently refused to lend $$$ to a classmate to buy drinks because the class was reminded by teacher not to lend $$$ to friends. whoever didnt have $$$$ must approach teacher who will give $$$ to him. apparently this is to avoid disputes between kids over $$$ which had happened before.

told ds it is okay to lend $$$ and reminded him about the boy who wanted to give his $$$ to him but ds is like must listen to teacher...... :oops:

A little boy in DS K2 class shitted in his pants. Every other child refused to play with him. They said he was dirty. My DS stayed by his side the whole day. Then he explained to me that it was because that boy was very sad that no one wanted to play with him.
