Good deeds today..

Today I think I'd been good for more than a couple of times. In the morning when I took the public transport, a blind man whose right arm wasn't there, together with a woman, took the public transport I was taking. In spite of his disabilities, he was still carrying with him a very old amplifier which looked heavy, his harmonica, and a can dangled around his neck obviously for the coins or money that people would give him. He was obviously on his way to a place where he will be positioned by the woman with him, so he could "work" using the only thing he knows, playing his harmonica and hoping that people would toss him a few coins. Since I was the first one to get off, I did not forget to put some money in his still-empty can. I heard him say "Thank you" when I got off the vehicle. I was feeling good about the outcome of my solicitations for sponsorship to an event we are sponsoring so I felt like sharing it with those who I saw needed it. When I left the first office I went to, there outside the gate was another man bringing his ukelele, obviously going around caroling. I scooped some coins from my bag and handed the money to the caroler. This afternoon, as I was taking my snack, a girl, around 10 years old, came to sell peanuts. After asking her if she is attending school, etc., I bought from her several bags of peanuts. It does feel good to give back the good things that you receive from others. How about you? Have you also done your own share of giving and sharing?
