    Making enemies at peace and harmony with each other is an act of heroic kindness....the opposite which is causing desolation or stirring up dissension among brothers is one of the things that is detestable to God.

    I think I notice Random Acts of Kindness more actually - sad to say I've got so used to the other sort that I don't notice them much. Have you read "Random Acts of Kindness" by Danny Wallace? I think it's your sort of thing. I love doing them too! People get so confused - I get confused when they are done to me too! Dreamy

    Giving up your seat on the bus to a mother who is holding a baby. Helping a blind person to find their way across a busy street. Taking time to hear how a lonely neighbors day has been. Buying a sandwich an a drink for a panhandler. These are just a few things you can do for your fellow human.
