  3. Hach ja... gerade saßen 2 sehr junge Erwachsene neben mir an der Theke meines Lieblingsmexikaners und haben den Abend genossen. Ich habe spontan deren wenige Getränke bezahlt, ohne daß sie es mitbekommen hätten.

    Dieser Blick, eine Mischung von Verwunderung und Dankbarkeit. Das war es absolut wert.

  4. Voyage in to London village today. Lady at Paddington station gave me my coffee for free! Very grateful. Can't help but wonder if its my embrace of "homeless chic"...

  6. A tiny anecdote from yesterday: as I was leaving the speaking gig, I walked past the front office of the community centre. I glanced in, as I walked by, and I stopped. I saw a sign saying "Mojgan". And I wanted to know how it was pronounced! How fascinating, a name I've never heard, and can't honestly place as to its origin. So cool!

    So I said, "Excuse me? I just wanted to say that's a really pretty name."

    She looked surprised.

    "I just like it. It looks nice written out. May I ask how you say it?"

    She blushed. "It's 'mozh-g'n'". Emphasis on the first syllable, the second reduced to just the consonants basically.

    I repeated it, and asked if I'd got it right. She nodded, and smiled. I said, "Yes, that really is a lovely name. I hope you have a good day."

    And I walked away, leaving an office of three women looking at one another like, "What just happened?" with smiles on their faces.

  7. Went to the post office and let a person who had to step aside to fill in an address to cut in front of me. No big deal, I'm in no rush, said to her to pay forward the kindness next time.

    When she got to the till, she grabbed the post satchels I was buying and insisted on paying for me.

  8. "... Russell had gone into that post office feeling “overwhelmed about the sheer volume of bad news and the enormity of problems in the world, that I had absolutely no power to do anything about”. But on the bus, on her way home, she felt different; empowered. “It made me think about how maybe some people are more likely to receive kindness than others and how one way to respond to unkindness is with kindness.” ...

  9. A couple of days ago I found a random crochet act of kindness in the form of this little rhinoceros friend left hanging from a bush.

    Thought about taking him home, but decided to leave it since it was just round the corner from a primary school and would make some kid's day.

    Today I was rewarded! Much more out of the way, up in a tree on our regular walking route, we found this little mouse friend instead!

    I think the "Random Act of Crochet Kindness UK" thing is a FB group, so feel a bit sad I can't let them know this one was found, but oh well.

    It's brightened my day and will take pride of place on the shelf 🐭

  10. Today's positive act of good for the world, I moved this frog to safety on an evening stroll in the park. Also reported it on arter.dk -> Danish app + database for recording nature in Denmark which now has more than 54 million finds recorded!

  11. Circuit breaker powering a friend’s greenhouse located in their garage tripped — but a 5” thick ice glacier made it impossible to open! I brought tools of disassembly and what worked best was my 8 pound short-handle sledge hammer and my sharpest splitting wedge! Thick ice is fucking tough! Their greenhouse is getting power again!

    Feels good to help make something a bit better in the current dystopia …
