Random Act of Kindness

[berserkbishop]

I have been the recipient of several Random Acts of Kindness on this board, the most recent was me just mentioning interest in the Mowgli made kilt and someone buying it for me anonymously! The other gentlemen who have been very kind to me on this board are MacMillian of Rathdown and Cacuun. You guys rock. I hope to repay the kindness someday and I hope that I pass the spirit of the giving on in my everyday behavior!

IMHO Ramdom Acts of Kindness (RAK) should always be paid forward. True RAK it is not done for repayment from the person you are being kind to but to repay someone for their past RAK.

I work in a Government office with a lot of contractors. Many of them are self-employeed subcontractors. One day I over heard one of the contractors saying that he had not been paid by his prime contractor and he wasn't sure if he could put gas in his car. Having recently purchased a house and my money was tight but not this tight. I wrote out a check for $50 and left it on his desk. I would have perferred to have left cash but don't carry that much. It was not much but got him through the next couple of days.
