Week Two

This week's act of kindness was something small, but big. What do I mean? Well sometimes the little things can make a big difference.

On Wednesday evening an elderly lady was at the supermarket and when she pulled something off the shelf lots of other packets fell to the floor. She was a little embarrassed so I made her feel better by saying, "don't you hate when that happens." Then I picked them up for her. It didn't take me long at all, but I could see she really appreciated it.

Have you ever walked past someone when they were picking things up off the floor?

How nice would our world be if EVERYONE stopped to help others ALL the time?

They say what goes around comes around and I think this is true. After tech and spec on Thursday two of my students came in and were excited to tell me how they did a random act of kindness. On the way to class a teacher aide was carrying lots of orange speech cards and dropped them all over the floor. They kindly picked them up for her. Holding up my newly laminated orange speech cards I said, "did they look like this?" Our lovely teacher aide was kindly doing me a favour. Cutting and laminating my speech cards for me. In the process my students helped her. It's like a chain. Who will be next?
