when i was visiting my girlfriend in indiana last month, i took her 7 year old to drive through dairy queen to get breakfast for us all. each time we go into the store, she wants to put whatever change she has (when im paying cash i give the kids the change) in the salvation army donation bin. well, this particular day her karma paid off....when i drove up to the window and ask how much, the cashier said the previous car paid our bill for us.
evidently, my gf said that its kind of a thing to do in the area.....when you can, pay for others randomly
Random Acts of Kindness
So what is your random act of kindness for Christmas Real life or in wow?
I will start. I always clean out my bank at Christmas time giving away items and pets to those in need. In RL I purchase toys for kids that I know would not have a Christmas and try to full fill as many wishes as possible Its a yearly tradition and this year is alittle tougher than usual and I may eat soup for next 2 weeks but well worth it. As a police officer, I witness the worse this world has to offer as well as the good in others so I try to keep a list of those whose path I cross and make a difference in my own small way. Many of us in the community help w/ school supplies, clothing and summer activities, but at Christmas time, for me its all about the kids and the memories of all the great Christmases I had as a child and hope to make come true for other children.

Re: Random Acts of Kindness
Hmmm giving couple of dollars to a little girl (about 5 yrs old) when I was working as waiter. She was trying to get some donations for her school and apparently I was the very first person for half a day >.> later on she and her mother came back that day and gave me a bag full of home made cookies.

For me it is not any special day or festival but I like to give away food and blanket every now and then to the homeless. Their smile is my reward.

Re: Random Acts of Kindness
Yeah giving is awesome. I regularly try to give whatever food or extra food I have to the homeless here. So let's say if I get a KFC bucket, and I got a few pieces left, instead of having it the next day as left overs, I place it outside our apartment building near the garbage can (Covered ofcourse) so they can eat it. Sometimes I leave a note that says 'don't give up' or 'keep going' as well.
