Submit Your Act of Kindness!

Finally met the woman who was randomly bringing my newspaper to the front door of my house. Quite a mystery for the last few months and she is just a kind soul that likes doing for others. The next day I left her some of our famous T-Shirts and coupons for some of our products....pay it forward....

It was starting to drizzle and a young mother was trying her best to rig up a newspaper over a baby stroller as they waited for the bus. The skies looked ominous. I was going the opposite direction, but swung around and gave her my umbrella.

One day when I was seventeen my mother and I were shopping at the mall. There had been a serial rapist/killer, not yet apprehended who had been "shopping" for victims there in recent weeks. We were about to go in to this great little boutique when I spotted this "couple" passing by and intuition told me all was not well. I told my mother we needed to follow them because I felt the woman was in trouble. She protested, saying we should not get involved, but I insisted and we began to follow them. I remember she was an attractive woman with beautiful red hair. To me she seemed terrified and I felt compelled to help her. I convinced my mother we needed to watch them and as we walked I began using hand gestures to attract the attention of others. When enough people were watching I quickly walked in front of them and turned around to confront the man holding the woman's arm. First I asked her if she was okay. Her response was not satisfactory so I then told him he needed to let her go. That is when she began to find her courage and tried to pull away from him. Others were gathering around and he soon realized he was out-numbered. He backed away and ran out of the mall. She did not know the man who was trying to abduct her. Someone went to find security and other adults were comforting her by then and so we went on our way. I wonder where she is today and how she is doing, and whether or not she remembers that nosey, nervy teenager who wouldn't just politely ignore what just didn't seem quite right.

My friend recently died. I had never met his parents but wanted to do something for the family that would show I cared. I decided to make a flower arrangement with flowers that reminded me of their son. I picked sunflowers, white roses, and iris's. I gave them the arrangement and the gratitude they expressed was unmeasurable. A couple day's later at the funeral, all the flowers used were sunflowers. I know every time they see one they will see their son's smiling face looking at them.
