What good deed have you done today?
Jump to: Newest in thread
Ok so as the title say, what good deed have you done today? It could be big or small…
I found a wallet and returned it to their owner as the drivers license was inside. They looked shocked as they didn’t even know it was missing, but I was glad to know they were reunited.
So give it to me, good deeds of the day  |

"Gave my friend a hug when she was crying and getting her out of the house for a walk in a minute  "
Helping a friend is need is absolutely the kind of thing I was thinking. It’s good that she has you, bring sad alone is horrible, I’ve been there.
I hope you have a fabulous walk and I’m sure some fresh air will help x |

I found £20 note whist out running at the weekend , wasn’t sure what to do with it ,where I work there’s a few people on zero hours so haven’t been in work a lot this week , I posted the note in an envelope through her door , anonymously, she has just recently left her husband, so money is tight |

"I pumped up my neighbours tyre as it was flat again, without her knowing! She’s not a particularly nice human being, but a good deed done none the less! Miss pc  "
Holy moly that’s a crazy good deed! Without her knowing as well, you could’ve skipped away and let her deal with it. Again, I take my hat off to you  |

"My 2nd volunteer shift this week - with the mummy dragon and Small (starting her young and working together to help others)"
How wonderful, volunteering is so good for everyone involved. May I ask what kind of volunteering? I have previously volunteered at a mother and baby group and with a DA refuge, both incredibly rewarding |

"Shared my fish and chips with the seagulls at the beach x"
My daughters shared some chips with some pigeons yesterday, not quite the same as you I wish I was at the beach. Well done, it’s not easy to share delicious fish and chips |

"Offered a friend a free reiki session as she's stressed and I know she'll benefit"
That is very kind, did she accept? I’ve had someone tell me they are a reiki healer who tried to do reiki on me but it didn’t seem to do anything? |

"Covered my colleague's not-insubstantial workload so that he could have the week off  "
Now that is truly kind. I think that often things like this are overlooked by all. Without colleague kindness and support businesses would fall apart wouldn’t they? |

It's a thorny issue where we are due to fluctuating student numbers. Apparently news tomorrow will be of even more so I will need to tweak. Again.  |

"Offered a friend a free reiki session as she's stressed and I know she'll benefit
That is very kind, did she accept? I’ve had someone tell me they are a reiki healer who tried to do reiki on me but it didn’t seem to do anything? "
She did. I'm seeing her next week.
It really is individual what you experience, but I've never had anyone not feel anything |

A call got transferred to me today from the call centre... a customer of my whole 19 years at work.
They didnt know what to do with her.. she asked for me.
"Can you speak to "customer?"
Me...yep...put her through.
Customer hasn't been out of the house in nearly 3 years... just wanted a blether.... said to my team...I'm on a call... spent 40 mins just blethering to a very lonely person... will call her again in a day or 2 just to catch up... it wasnt a good deed per say..but I felt good afterward... hope she did too. |

Helped a spider out of the bathtub,
Big spider too, carefully put them under a glass, carried them outside and left them on a bush.
Saw a tired bee on the path on the way back indoors. Fetched some icing sugar and gently blew it over them.
Watched them clean it off themselves and fly away. Wouldn't have seen the bee if it wasn't for the spider. |

Yes that is likely. It is important that the setting and more importantly the intention is right. If you're ever in Bristol, I'd be pleased to restore your faith and belief. |

Now that’s a story I love! Nature is so important, I save all spiders too x did you get your shower/ bath after?
The last time I helped a bee I was surprised by the amazing recovery with some sugar water |

I only went into the bathroom to use the loo. It was one of those moments that startle you with that jolt of irrational shock followed by a choice to overcome it and do something helpful.
For the Bees, try the icing sugar trick, just get a bit on a teaspoon and gently blow it onto the bee, same as the sugar water but less time consuming. My icing sugar box has a teaspoon in it at all times. |

I haven’t heard the icing sugar tip, I’m not sure how it would work with the bee themselves but I’ll give it a go as recommended |

A box at end of your bed |
I loaded my washing machine first thing this morning ready for me to put my work gear in when I finish this afternoon and set it going as soon as I get home. That is about it so far today but still early yet. |
