Little Acts of Kindness
Little acts of kindness can literally travel around the world.
We have a bus stop out the front of our house and I often offer strangers shelter from the rain or heat under our front deck just meters from the bus stop. Sometimes it’s feels a bit weird but I still like to do it.
Years ago, I handed a glass of water to two older travellers stepping off the bus on a scorcher of a day.
I didn’t think much of it—just a simple gesture. But today, I found this postcard tucked away that I’d forgotten about, a heartfelt message sent all the way from the Netherlands by Win and Annie. (Weird … our dogs name is Winnie)
They wrote to say they still remember that moment, that small act, as a “gift from heaven.” Lol.
It reminded me of something I try to teach my kids: Kindness doesn’t need to be grand to be meaningful. The ripple effect of a single kind act can stretch across continents and linger in someone’s heart for years. You just never know where it goes … I reckon it’s worth doing just to see!
