I have fallen into this mode where I love to do random acts of kindness.
It all started not too long ago. A couple I know had a baby a few months ago and I saw the dad in the grocery store and we got chatting. His wife got laid off at work and his job was scaled back to part time. Things are rough for them right now and hardly making ends meet. We chatted and walked around the store together. I happened to notice he bought the same brand diapers I do.
So the next day I went out and bought just over 1,000 diapers and dropped them off at their house to help them cut back on costs.
It felt nice to do that and so I decided that once a month I will do something like this with people I know. A good friend of mine (brother inlaw) has had a tough life. He had both his kidneys out and almost died on the operating table when he was just 9 years old. Due to his kidney failure since birth it has caused his bones to become very fragile. His doctors is suggesting he get hip surgery and use a cane. The kid is 19. He is told he can't ski or do sports. So he took up golfing. I have been with him a few times and taught him a few things. The other day I was driving by Hermon Meadows where we golf quite often and picked up a $100 gift card towards golfing and gave it to him.
I am currently trying to determine what I will do next. But it makes me feel good to know I am able to help someone out. Anyone else??
