Random Acts of Kindness

“If you have kindness in your heart, you offer acts of kindness to touch the hearts of others wherever you go – whether they are random or planned.  Kindness becomes a way of life.
~ Roy Bennett

Earlier today, an email from a vendor alerted me that it was Random Acts of Kindness Day.  I am not sure how official that is, but it reminded me of a couple of random acts that I recently enjoyed.  We had traveled to another city for a robotics competition at a state fair grounds.  When we arrived at the fair grounds, we parked and approached one of the entrances only to find out that we were not in the right place.  A teenager and his mother also were looking for the competition.  As we walked back to our car to drive to another entrance, the teenager came running up to our car to tell us where we had to go as his mother had just received the right directions.  A couple of hours later during the lunch break, another mom and I were trying to move a metal picnic table into the shade, so that we could sit out of the sun.  As we struggled with the table, a gentleman came up and helped us to move it.
