Actually three-fourths of my family were victimized while I was attending Wicked with my oldest daughter. My hubby took our other three children out to dinner at a local pub and grill.

It was mostly an uneventful meal for them considering we have a a feisty red headed two year old. At the end of their meal the server informed my hubby that their meal was paid for by another table and he pointed out an elderly woman.

Hubby thanked the woman but she denied having paid their bill as her companion giggled. He got the kids bundled up in their coats and then approached the woman again.

“If you did buy our dinner I want to say thank you again.”

They chatted for a few minutes and the first question she asked was where was his wife. She must of thought he was either divorced or a widower because of our kids mismatched clothes and unbrushed hair. My hubby doesn’t give those things attention when he’s in charge.

He called me to tell me about this woman’s random act of kindness and it turns out that the friend that I was with had the same thing happen to her at the same restaurant. My guess is the elderly woman must do this often. She probably chooses a table of diners every time she dines there. How cool is that?

I love random acts of kindness. Not only do they feel good to the recipient but it feels good to be the giver. I often perform random acts of kindness via the internet as some of you who read me already know. It feels good knowing I made someone else feel good and that good feeling is contagious.

Have you been a victim of a random act of kindness? What random acts have you done? Please share.
