@brightwings thank you for sharing your story. I feel the same way. I have worn a few masks in my day too. I've been on both sides of kindness - receiving and giving. They both feel pretty good. I have to say that being able to give out an act of kindness is just special and grows on you. My wish is that everyone will jump on the kindness bandwagon and reap the benefits and good feelings.

Already looking for an opportunity for tomorrow! Thanks again...

John

John, I am right there with you. I am usually the one giving the kindness/help. However having said that, a few months ago I had my car in the shop. I was told I needed 2 tires in the back of my car. Trying to hold my tears back (remember I am withdrawing from the antidepressant from he'll, effexor) I knew I had no money at the time for new tires. Long story short, a lady there anonymously paid for those tires and left, her car having been repaired. I was so shocked. I was the one always doing for others, now here she had helped me.
I had to keep the perspective that just like me, she was a helper, but this time she was helping me. Since I always want my help accepted, I knew I had to accept her help. It didn't take me but a minute to be grateful. I still am grateful. There is no way I could have paid for 2 tires in one month. Smiling at you John, Bright Wings
