When Was The Last Time You Experienced a Random Act of Kindness?

[hein]

I visit my Lola's grave every time I feel downtrotten. I was feeling exactly like this when I visited my Lola's grave on Monday this week. As was my habit, I would pass by my "suki" flower vendor near the gate of the memorial park to buy flowers for my Lola. Since I was a regular "suki", they are already familiar with me as to what flowers I buy that I don't even have to get out of the car. I just roll out my window and they would give my usual order then I pay.

When I was about to leave, the manang asked me to wait a while then when she returned, she handed me 3 red roses. I was dumbfounded for a while but I managed to say thank you. While I was entering the cemetery, it hit me - what a kind gesture from somebody of meager means. That is what made it extraordinary. That moment she was the bigger person than I because I was on the receiving end of her generosity. It moved me to tears.

WOW, you have a secret admirer.

This morning out of frustration I went down and clean the car, to weed out the disappointment. As usual malinis na ang parking area pag baba ko, Manong Jo ang kabitbahay kong naka tira sa squatters area. He always cleans my parking area kahit wala ako na mag aabot sa kanya ng pera.

So I cleaned the car, check the engine and the aux fan then bought a juice and waited for Manong Jo to come out so I can give it to him and some change. I was so disappointed this morning that I decided to just sit down let the time fly and quit thinking. 30mins later I saw Manong Jo, I wave signaling him to come to me. Gave the juice and change to him, to my surprise ayaw nyang inumin dapat share daw kami. So kinalahati ko ang juice ang gave it to him and let go of him after some nice chat, then bigla nya akong tinawag so I have to lift the rollup again buti na lang di pa ako naka akyat.

To my surprise Manong Jo went to 7Eleven and bought me Ice cream pala! I told him... "Boss pambili mo ng pagkain yun!" And he just said... "Hinde boss ok lang ako, para naman ako naman ang may maibigay sayo." The burden that I was carrying was lifted from me on that act of kindness from a man na walang-wala talaga. Most of the time Manong Jo only eat 1 time a day, kaya parati ko syang inaabutan when I have a chance.

So we chatted ang laughed for 30 more mins, while I'm eating the ice cream he gave.

Iyan ang sinabi ko sa isa naming dating kasama na hindi mo mapagli-libre....

"Alam mo, bro.- sa lahat ng mga kasama ko rito sa trabaho,- ikaw ang gustung-gusto kong palaging ilibre. Alam mo kung bakit? Sabi kasi ng Pari sa kanyang sermon sa misa,- gumawa ka ng kabutihan sa mga taong hindi makakaganti ng kabutihan sa iyo, sapagka't ang iyong biyaya ay manggagaling sa langit"

Tawanan na lang ang mga kasama namin.... Iyong tao,- walang epekto... :hysterical:

This Christmas Season was special.

Our youngest son loves cars and scale model cars... He was asking me last Christmas to get him one of those Petron cars but in all of my attempts the model car is out of stock...

One day, the customer ahead of me overheard my inquiry on when the next batch is arriving.

She gave me her model car and did not ask me to pay for it, saying Merry Christmas for our youngest kid.

God bless you, kind hearted lady!!!

Last December i was seated near a row of Fil-Am sounding kids and a yaya for the young baby. i kinda expected them to get a little rowdy, but hey, what's one hour with rowdy kids, right? (That said, the kids were amazingly well-behaved throughout the flight. Kudos to the parents who were seated at a different row)

Then this kid gave me a bag of candy with a note, explaining that it was the baby's first time flying, and they were offering the candy as a sort of consuelo in case she gets rowdy. That immediately made my day.

i still have that note
