Happy Holiday's, Merry Christmas, please take a moment to think of those who are less fortunate than you and have nothing this year....if you can perform a Random Act of Kindness. Giving always makes me feel good!
Hugs, PL

I loved hearing about the people who helped to pay off the layaway fees for those moms and parents who had things set aside for their kids. It was like a a Secret Santa and a great surprise to those moms who came to the stores and found out they didn't owe anything on their layaways!!

Anonymous random acts are the best.

I know a well-known provider from Dallas who does random acts of kindness. She is a caring person and has a big heart.

When a provider pumps up my ego by telling me great lies about my performance, I feel that counts as a random act of kindness. To which, I am most appreciative!

Don't forget random acts of kindness for animals too

. I feed stray kitties when I can.

Good move! I donated a TON of Disney toys ( brand new POTC and other popular Disney toys) to families in need and also if I just see a family on the street with kids that look like they're struggling, offer to buy them a bag of groceries.

I'm a member of an organization that "adopted" a group of underprivileged kids with disabilities. Last week, we played Santa, and gifted toys. There's no better way to get into the holiday spirit!

About the end of Nov. I was with my sister driving home from the grocery store and saw this young lady carrying a couple bags of groceries and a little baby. Keep in mind it was really cold for Houston. I whipped around and offerend her a ride. She climbed in. We started talking at it was very clear she was at the end of her rope. She just kicked her Husband out. She has 3 kids and her electric was just turned off. I have never felt so bad for another person. It was 7 pm and she was going into a dark cold duplex. I went back to the store and bought some food I thought her kids would like and left it on her porch. The next day my sister went back and talked to the girl. Her name is Sarah, and got her electric turned back on. Then we bought some presents and wrapped them. I had my nephew knock on her door to make sure she was home. Then we left the presents on her porch for her kids and some cash for her. My nephew rang the door bell and ran like hell. We did this on wed. before Christmas. It's a great feeling knowing you help another person for no other reason than you have the chance to. This was the first time I got to put a face and a story to some Christmas cheer.
