Honestly I truely admire those that do Random Acts of Kindness or any type of Charitable good and keep it to themselves. Like others have said sometimes all it takes is a smile or hug to make someones day.
I so agree with this, irishmama5.
If we want to share ideas here in the forums, we easily can talk about the good deeds of others instead of making it about ourselves.
Lolakimono~What beautiful eyes....is this the one looking for a home or yours? If your friend loves cats.....I think it's a wonderful idea.
Simply precious
He's looking for a home.
Mine are orangies.
This is another one, Xena.
Here is her story:
Xena had been living on her own near a nice lady’s house for almost a year when she got into trouble. Someone other than the nice lady used Xena for target practice and shot her with an arrow.
Scared and hurting Xena went to the only person she knew. Not knowing what else to do, the caring lady called Animal Control for help. The AC officer carefully picked Xena up and loaded her into the truck. However, Xena needed care quickly and the Animal Control staff vet had already left. . Xena was very lucky that the arrow did not go through any vital organs and was easily removed.
I have read where those who abuse animals become serial killers! Maybe someone could use the scumbag for target practice..Karma? I pray Xena finds a home..maybe they should send her to BestFriends in Utah!
Very nice thread, HD.

HTH anyone
Hi, feline groovy! This looks like a wonderful resource. Thanks for sharing it!
The cool, random, and kind thing about these acts is that they are not broadcast or bragged about. The person does NOT take credit. Then it's good. Otherwise, it just seems like it's about the 'giver'. That just seems wrong to me.
It's wonderful to see people want to do something for somebody else, as long as they don't make it about them instead.
Yes you said it better than I did, real giving comes quietly, humbly, without boasting, without telling others, as my Pastor says. :-)
You said it well. I'm non-religious so, other than that part of it, I TOTALLY agree with what you and MominOhio said.
It just always bothered me when people took credit for good deeds. It always rather negated the whole 'good deed' aspect of it for me.
I agree with the anonymity aspect of it being important, whenever possible.
The two exceptions to this are to share those experiences in a place like this, because it give others ideas that they may never have thought of and perhaps lights the fire in others to do or give. Second, when teaching children, it is best learned by example, and so they need to see you do it, and you need to talk about why you do it with them, for them to learn and understand it.
Ooh, that's a great thought about teaching your children! I never had kids so the thought had not crossed my mind. Thank You for that reminder. I'd love to think that everybody teaches their children to be kind and to do for others (without recompense of course).
I had a horrible childhood, but that made me who I am in so many ways and fortunately I was able to see through some horrible behaviors in both parents, like bigotry, from a very young age. What I would have carried on was how wrong it is so that chain would be broken. I guess what I'm saying is that we can only hope that positive things come from both directions - the bad and the good. But there is no discounting that 'good' is better.
You never know when just one word, one gesture, one smile, one deed will make a difference. Use every day and every gesture to it's best. We are here for a reason ... make it a good one.
One of my favorite quotes of all time... 8)
