It was raining and someone opened a door for me .
@caringShoulder1357
❤️❤️❤️
@soulsings This is actually a daily goal of mine, to do at least one good deed. Today my good deed was buying donuts for the office. We serve people all day at work so it was nice to have a morning gesture of kindness.
@soulsings. I agree!! See my post lol

today i acted in kindness and understanding to a offline friend who was freaking out over a text from her boyfriend she took it that he was braking up with her but though understanding treating her kindly i was able to get her to see his text did not mean that it was more him sharing his feeling with her as he was scared he trigger her again unknown when doing it they both have mental illness she has big issue with understanding others even her own emotions so at times she misunderstands others so think that be acted of kindness and supporting her
one i received and is on going is a lady is picking me up for the small gruop and bring me home she very kind in dropping me off at the door so i not have to walk far too she understands that i have issues with my back and legs so see that as acted of kindness that on going
@stormieandpaws that is good you take care of your friend.
And great you got taken care of too.
@soulsings
My sister and I have offered to some man who is temporarily homeless a place to stay in an old garage at the other end of the property. We heard since that the man is an alcoholic with a nasty temper when drunk. We now hope he finds another place to stay really soon. So far, so good 🤨

@fradiga hope he stays sober
@soulsings
No chance! He's got a 2-gallon red wine box there. Rumours are going on in this town about him and I would not be surprised if the gendarmes got involved at some point, although, so far, he is not much trouble to us, except we had to provide him with a big jar for an ashtray and instructions to where he can relieve himself. He's got a cute little Jack Russell for company but I hope we do not end up having to keep it, because it has no manners either.
@Fradiga fill the wine box full of soda? lol
@soulsings
Well, unfortunately, soda is worse than wine where I live, you know?
@Fradiga I meant non alcoholic drinks but I see your dilemma.
Received: consoling and given a plushie, idk many kindnesses abound - even thru very difficult times; I think it has a lot to do with karma and I've received both ends of that so I try to stay humble and giving even though being disabled sometimes my kindness is just listening. Given: today I gave the shirt off my back to someone in need
edit: yesterday
