Aww...that made me smile. :) I love reading about little nuggets of kindness.

AW!!!!!!!!!!! ^_^

This makes my day :)

:)

YAY!!!!

It's moments like those that make up for the jerks in the world. (I'm looking at you BP.)

:Hugs everybody: :)

Awww, that's awesome.

That's so sweet! :)

I hate to rain on the parade of good feelings, but really, the delight that people in need also behave kindly? Not cool.

That's not it, I don't think. Kindness in any form is to be celebrated. And hey, you've got to admit that it's harder to be kind when you're cold and hungry.

A lovely thought to send me off to dreamland tonight. Thanks!

Thank you for this. I needed my faith in humanity restored today, and that brought a tear to my eye.

This.

Ahhh. Feels good, man.

Hey, it's a real life CMOH!

Yep, this made my day.

I am more surprised that someone just gave a homeless man food than that the homeless man shared it, honestly. I get so bugged when people brush right past a homeless person as if they are intruding on them when asking for a little help. Friends do this and then always act exasperated when I stop to dig out whatever change I have. I get it; you can't help EVERYONE, I get that. But chances are a dollar to a person in need here and there is not going to make or break you. And if it is, tell them that, Somehow I think they'll get it. Don't just act imposed upon and dismiss them, it is so shitty I can't even articulate it properly without fuming. At the risk of sounding feel-goody, with the state of this world we could all stand to show a little compassion whenever the opportunity arises.

All that being said, both make me very happy. so yay and thank you for posting. :)

I agree with you. I think they tone of the post was not to brag about to brag about what she did, but to highlight the unselfishness of the recipient of her good will.

I agree, though, that her good work should be praised, too. Well done, OP! ♥

Being a decent human being has its own rewards. More people should try it, IMO.

Thank you for posting this. I've done similiar and I we could all use reminders to be kind once in a while.

This may be the first "occasionally deep" post this year that hasn't made me want to backhand someone.

Goddamnit, I hate it when dust gets in my eyes and they get so watery. *sniffle* Stupid allergies.

That's awesome.

humanity can be kind. my heart is lifted slightly this day, and my week has been brightened. thanks!

The fact that your reply was written using past tense made me very happy.

This made my roommate and I both go "Aww." =)

I normally ignore the "occasionally deep" quotes, but I'm glad I read this one. Warm, fuzzy feeling.
