I have been suffering with a bad back recently with two broken vertebrae. Yesterday when getting off a Ferry here in Sydney I had a 500 metre walk to me next destination, a walk I could have achieved a year ago, sadly I can’t do it now. I had a friend with me who was concerned that I couldn’t make it up the hill. He approached an Uber driver who unbelievably said jump in my car and I’ll drive you.. The driver Waleed would not accept one cent! Amazing!
An hour later i was waiting for a taxi to take me home and a cab arrived. The passenger in the car had no cash and the taxi driver had eftpos problems. I said to the cab driver, allow me to pay for his fare ($20) if he would take me home (there was a shortage of cab drivers). On my way home I told him about the Uber driver’s gesture for me and I decided to “pay it forward”. When I paid the driver, I said to him to pay it forward to someone else. What a feeling. Simplicity in helping others in their time of need

My husband allowed me to be sad because my shoulder is very sore after an operation.
He tried really hard to comfort me and did a beautiful job cleaning the kitchen.
He is very kind.
I am very lucky.

A beautiful barista gave me a free Doughnut after I shared my awful night with my toddler.
It made my whole day! Such a beautiful gesture when this sleep deprived. My faith is restored in humanity 🙏 ❤️

Someone said my shirt was pretty whilst I was going through a phase where I wanted to die over how much weight I had.
Kept me going. Now that shirt is my favourite one.

I regularly get the bus to get to the shops as I don’t have a car. I see all kinds of people from all walks of life. Yesterday, a very sad, somewhat disheveled middle aged man got on the bus I was on. The man was trying to explain he didn’t have any money for the fare or an Opal bus travel card as he had just got out of jail.

The bus driver was incredibly rude to him & he was in the process of telling him to get off the bus. The passenger looked so sad. I thought he was about to cry. Something triggered in me. I had to help. As the passenger was in the process of getting off the bus, I yelled out “WAIT”. Everyone else on the bus looked at me. I quickly raced to the bus door and gestured to the msn to hop back on and that I would pay his fare. He seemed shocked and very grateful. The driver was annoyed. I paid his fare on my account so that he could get off wherever he needed to. Once the man was seated, he just kept saying “thank you love, thank you”. He said several times, “no-one has ever been so kind to me”. “It’s OK I said. My stop was before his and as I stood up to start to head to the door, I handed the man $20 and simply said “for you, because “everyone” matters. The look on his face represented a thousand words and that frozen moment in time was profound to me. I. didn’t even know this man’s name, nor did he know mine, but I knew I’d help make his day. But what I didn’t expect was how much it’d made mine too.
My heart was smiling.

We offered a room in our house for a tennis player, so that he didn't have to pay for accommodation in the town. it was also much closer than where he was going to originally stay.
And to whoever reads this; have a really good day :D
