I really enjoy doing this because of the reaction I get from total strangers. But this latest one was when I was out to lunch and I was at a drive-thru window, There was a man digging through a garbage bin and I was watching him, all of a sudden he looked up and I can see he was embarrassed that I saw him..After I received my order I pulled up to him and asked him if he was hungry, he had tears in his eyes as he nodded that he was, I got out of the car and told him to come with me and I went inside to get him something to eat,,He at first order something small..As a parent myself I new that wasn't going to fill him up for very long, so I stopped the order and got him the largest Burger and fries and drink plus milkshake they had to offer. Then I paid for it and turned around and walked away..I told him that his situation is only temporary and that someday he'll return the favor to someone else. He promised me he would.

Of course hasn't everyone. I am 65 we were raised to do for others.
Loaned money to help pay for groceries for someone.
Paid someone Else's toll.
Gave things to someone who needed them more than I did.
In a line where I had a low number and a lady older than I had a much higher one, I switched with her.
None of these are even significant. As a Mother, raised when I was, it is bred into you to give family members the best of what ever and you take the lest.
Isn't this just part of life.

I sent money to a family in need after watching Oprah regarding poverty in America and received a thank you card.
I know people tithe in church but I sometimes pay that to a random stranger, waitress etc.
I always give money to homeless people even when I'm in other states visiting and giving is powerful, I find that when I need something it manages to find it's way to me.
I'm a giver and the universal law is...there is always enough and the energy behind giving will follow you and return to you 10 fold.

I finished a Saint's act as quickly as.I have the potential to transform a Liverpool fan right into a Manchester United fan. i've got finished those random acts of kindness many cases,yet i've got continuously neutralised them via reminding them how undesirable their communities suck.

Payed the toll for the car behind me (done this a few times), paid a restaraunt bill for some teenagers, gave gas money to a stranded family, bought food for a homeless guy I saw going through a dumpster, whatever strikes me.

Every day. Open doors, help people carry heavy objects, return wallets, etc. It feels weird to talk about it though-i think if you brag about being kind then it really doesn't count.
I just do it, because it feels good to spread kindness, and I'd hope that someone would do the same for me.

Every day. Hold the door for someone, pick up something dropped, pay a compliment, smile, etc...

I do it all the time, but I don't keep track of them! I don't think that is the point of it all!
If you don't know what it is, it is doing something that helps someone else, who may never know who you are or why you did what you did.

I was driving near my home many years ago and saw and old man who couldn't move his car on the side of the road.
I left my car there and drove him home in his car.
