My Korner of Kindness
The Place To Warm Your Heart....

Hi!! Welcome to my little Korner of Kindness! I think a little Random Acts of Kindness makes this old world a better place to live in and to help you get started in making a little heaven in some poor soul's lives, I will be including stories contributed by myself and those out there who would like to share. I also have on this page other Random Acts of Kindness links plus helpful suggestions on enriching the lives of others as well as your own. :)
Here are some links to some wonderful sites on Random Acts of Kindness. I have not many links, but if you know of some worthwhile links that could be added here...please let me know. :)

Here are some Random Acts of Kindness I have had the pleasure to know.

Kindness in a Child
A couple I once knew were having a hard time with their finances. The stress of bills, hidden expenses and normal everyday grinds took a toll on their lives. They had a beautiful and intelligent 5 year old daughter whom they were try to teach at the time, how money works and the responsibility of it's use by giving her an allowance for her small jobs around the house. As they were very broke at the time, the parents decided to pay their little girl with play money for her allowance and planned on trading it with real currency when their financial burdens were lifted. Their little girl didn't know it wasn't real and accepted it as her earnings. One day after the couple were pouring through some bills and trying to figure out how they were going to make ends meet, their little girl heard their arguments and worries of money. She went into her room, collected all her "money" she had stored away, went to her distraught parents and told them that they could have her money to help them out. Even though it wasn't real money, the act had touched their hearts as well as mine. Their little girl had given them more than her "money" but her act of kindness and love.

Kindness to Strangers
My brother has in him a wonderful quality of kindness. He is to me a quiet hero, not expecting rewards for his kindness, but his thoughtfulness in him seems to be his whole being. My mother heard about his kindness by a co-worker of hers one day. She said she was at a hardware store, purchasing some items that happened to be quite difficult to carry out. As she was struggling to carry it out of the store, my brother seeing her in distress, stepped out of the extremely long line, losing his place all the while, to help this total stranger with her package to her car and loaded it for her. My brother did not know who she was or knew she worked with our mother. He only knew that she needed some dire help with her package when no one else wanted to leave the long line to help her. This woman recognized him as being my mother's son and told her of her wonderful and selfless boy. Donald, you are my hero. :)

Here are some examples of Random Acts of Kindness. You do not need money to fulfill a simple kindness, but simply your time to make one person's life feel special. :)
