I always try to do a random act of kindness. The movie pay it forward was an awesome inpiration to me. I alway smile and wave to those that let me go first at a stop sign or to cross the street. I smile and say thanks to those that hold the door open for me to pass. In stores I always let the one behind me go first if they have one or two items and I have a cart full. Those are just simple things that take a few seconds to do but puts a smile on the other persons face that will last awhile.

I do have a many bigger RAOK "Random Act of Kindness" that I have done. here are just a couple.

In the store one day an elderly Gentleman was about 2 people ahead of me in line. He couldn't get his check card to work in the machine so he tried to pay cash for the few items he had. He didn't have enough money for all so was asking the clerk to take a few things off the bill. It was only 5 of 6 dollars worth and he was just buying bread milk and few other needed items. so the gal ahead of me and myself paid for the rest of the items. He followed both of out out of the store wanting to know how he could ever repay us. We told him one day you will have an opportunity to help somebody else just make sure that he did.

Another time I was at work one day and a coworkers former Foster Daughter stopped by to let her know that she was getting married that weekend and wanted her to come to the wedding. They were not having a big wedding as they couldn't afford it but were just going to have a small ceremoney at home. So my coworker told her to go to the store and pick out a dress that she would buy it for her. Since I sat right across from this coworker I heard the whole conversation. So on my lunch break I went and got my jewelry tools some mother of pearls hearts and gold wire and made her a neckalce and pair of earrings. I dangled a blue crystal off the clasp of the necklace. I gave them to my coworker to give to her foster daughter as something new and her something blue. My coworker offered to pay me but I refused. I told her it was my gift to her. We all cried LOL. When she got the pictures back of the wedding I couldn't have pick a more perfect stone to use in the set as they went perfect with the dress. She looked radiant and the groom was very handsome.

I to am from Northern CA and a Huge fan of Celtic Music. I have listened to it for years and have passed this love to my 3 sons. Now we fight over CD's tongue.gif My oldest son, my brother and I enjoy going to as many scottish, celtic and highlander games we can find to get to. I design chain mail style jewelry and one day would love to have a booth at one of the faires.

My 2 older boys and I play the irish whistle "flute" I'm not as good as my oldest boys but I try LOL. My oldest son even writes his own music. We live about 2 blocks from the Feather River so he likes to take his flute and go down by the river to play. We are looking forward to going to the Highlander games in Angels Camp in March.
